Cancer is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in the world today. According to one study, there were 14.1 million new cases of cancer and 8.2 million cancer-related deaths worldwide in 2012. The most commonly diagnosed cancers were lung (1.82 million), breast (1.67 million), and colorectal (1.36 million). The most common cancer deaths are due to lung cancer (1.6 million deaths), liver cancer (745,000 deaths), and stomach cancer (723,000 deaths) (Ferlay, J. et al, 2015).

ABSTRACT
Transdermal drug delivery carried out a promising carrier in the transport of drugs to get direct access across the skin deep into the systemic circulation. Transdermal drug delivery have a number of advantages including improved patient compliance, sustained release, avoidance of gastric irritation, as well as elimination of pre-systemic first-pass effect. It gives attraction to many researchers due to various biomedical advantages. Due to the limitation of oral drug delivery system and the pain related with the use of needles in case of injections, drug delivery research has tremendously oriented towards the transdermal route. Delivery of drugs via transdermal route has proved to be the convenient route for various clinical implications. The objective of the present review is to focus on newly innovations in transdermal drug delivery systems which can create a platform for the research and development of pharmaceutical drug dosage form for efficient transdermal delivery. In this review, we tell about different types of microneedles are described and their methods of fabrication. Microneedles can be fabricated in different forms like hollow, solid, and dissolving. There are also hydrogel-forming microneedles.  In relation to hydrogel-forming microneedles, special attention, these are innovative microneedles which does not contain drugs but imbibe interstitial fluid to form continuous conduits between dermal microcirculation and an attached patch-type reservoir. Regulatory authorities approved several microneedles for clinical uses are also examined. The last part of this review discusses concerns and challenges regarding microneedles use.

ABSTRACT
Tablets are unit solid dosage form of medicament which largely used to compare other dosage form of medicaments. In tablet manufacturing, wet granulation and dry granulation methods largely used as compare to MADG process. In wet granulation and dry granulation methods various steps has been carried out like dispensing and shifting, dry mixing, granulation, pre-drying, shifting, premixing, lubrication and compression. But in MADG process, escape various steps like slugging, pre- drying, shifting, and drying. Hereby in MADG process save energy, cost of product and time also. The main object of review is hereby moisture activated dry granulation process very beneficial in case of water insoluble drug and water poorly soluble drug other than granulation method like wet granulation. Another objective of review how moisture activated dry granulation process carried out and given various advantages over the other granulation method. In water insoluble drug case MADG process largely used and very useful method for pharmaceutical industries.

ABSTRACT
The synthesis of nanostructure substances, specifically metal nanoparticles, has accrued utmost concern over the last decade owing to their particular properties that cause them to applicable in distinctive fields of technology era. The biological technique of nanoparticle synthesis is a relatively easy, reasonably-priced, and environmental friendly approaches than the conventional chemical technique of synthesis and accordingly profits a top hand. The bio mineralization of nanoparticles in protein cages is one among such biological approaches used inside the era of nanoparticles. In this review we attempted to explore different techniques of synthesis of nanoparticles and its characterization. Further this review extended the usage of such nanoparticle in different fields.

ABSTRACT: The present investigation deals with development of orally disintegrating tablets of Rizatriptan Benzoate to produce the intended benefits. Orally disintegrating tablets of Rizatriptan Benzoate were prepared by wet granulation method to provide faster relief from pain to migraine sufferers. Formulation research is oriented towards safety, efficacy and quick onset of action of existing drug molecule through novel concept of drug delivery. About four formulations for the present study were carried out full factorial design. Kyron 314 was used as super disintegrants, while microcrystalline cellulose and mannitol was used as diluents. Starch was used as binder. The prepared batches of tablets were evaluated for weight variation, hardness, friability, wetting time, drug content and in-vitro dissolution studies. The optimized formulation dispersed in within 15 seconds. It also showed a higher water absorption ratio and 99.67% of drug is released within a minute.

ABSTRACT: 
The thyroid gland produces thyroid hormones. The two most important hormones are tetraiodothyronine (thyroxine or T4) and triiodothyronine (T3).Iodine deficiency is a major health problem in India. Iodine deficiency that can lead to disorders like goiter, hypothyroidism and even brain damage. Even mild iodine deficiency in pregnant women can result in children being born with cretinism and mental retardation. The most popular method of tackling the problem has been to encourage the consumption of iodised salt. An iodine patch, designed like a regular bindi, is expected to help iodine deficiency. It seems like a brilliantly simply idea The wearing of bindis form part of a cultural practice of Indian Women, which are “self-adhesive” in between their eyebrows, have been impregnated with a solution of iodine.  Production costs are minimal, wearing the iodine-infused bindi requires no behavioral change.

ABSTRACT
Aging is one of the phases of individual’s life span, which everyone wants to escape. The process of aging is much more a social phenomena than biological phenomena. Aging brings many changes such as, loss of eyesight, hearing loss, dementia, etc. Aging may give rise to diseased states such as, heart disease, cancer, cerebrovascular disease (relating to blood vessels that supply the brain), pneumonia and flu, and chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases. The key-factor behind aging is the GDF11, i.e., Growth and Differentiation factor-11. GDF11 is also known as Bone Morphogenetic Factor-11 (BMP11). It is termed as key circulating ‘anti-aging’ factor. GDF11 is expressed in wide range of tissues and has been shown to play important roles in development of olfactory system, retina and pancreas. It functions in regulating anterior-posterior patterning of the axial skeleton muscle system. Scientists theorize that aging likely results from a combination of many factors viz., Lifestyle, Diseases and Genes. GDF11 is essential for mammalian development and has been suggested to regulate aging of multiple tissues, whereas myostatin is a well-described negative regulator of postnatal skeletal and cardiac muscle mass and modulates metabolic processes .

ABSTRACT:
The word “forensic” means “pertaining to the law”; forensic science resolves legal issues by applying scientific principles to them. Forensic Analysis is the application of Analysis to law enforcement or the failure of products or processes. It is unique among chemical sciences in that its research, practice, and presentation must meet the needs of both the scientific and the legal communities.Forensic Analysis applied the basic theory and mythology of advanced analytical chemistry to rationalize various materials of crimes and provide evidence to detection.Forensic Analysis is carried out by the two types of techniques namely Organic Analytical Technique &In- Organic Analytical Technique. And this review article covers regarding how Analytical techniques are useful in forensic analysis to resolve major problems of common man.
