Abstract :
The potential of Cosmarium species, belonging to green Micro algae, was investigated as a viable biomaterial for biological treatment of triphenylmethane dye, Malachite Green (MG).  This can be used for the bioremediation of dye effluents. The results obtained from the batch experiments revealed the ability of algal species in removing dye.  The effects of operational parameters (temperature, pH, dye concentration and algal  concentration) on decolorization were examined.  The stability and efficiency of the algae in long-term repetitive operations were also examined. Michaelis–Menten kinetics was used to describe the apparent correlation between the decolorization rate and the dye concentration.

ABSTRACT
The Microspongesdelivery system are extremely small, inert,indestructibleclusters of even tinierspherical particles of microscopic sizepatented polymeric delivery systems consisting of porous microspheres that can entrap a wide range of active ingredients such as emollients, fragrances, essential oils, sunscreens, and anti-infective, anti-fungal, and anti-inflammatory agents and are very well tolerated, and highly efficacious, novel productsthat do not pass through the skin, capable of holding four times their weight in skin secretionsand can absorb skin secretions. Like a true sponge, each microspheres consists of a myriad of interconnecting voids within a non-collapsible structure with a large porous surface. The size of the microsponges can be varied usually from 5-300µm in diameter, depending upon the degree of smoothness or after-feel required for the end formula. Although the microsponge size may vary, a typical 25µm sphere can have up to 250000 pores and an internal pore structure equivalent to 10ft in length providing a total pore volume of about 1ml/g. This results in a large reservoir within each microsponge, which can be loaded with up to its own weight in active agent. The microsponge particles themselves are too large to be absorbed into the skin and this adds a measure of safety to these microsponge materials. Another safety concern is the potential bacterial contamination of the materials entrapped in the microsponge. Because the size of the pore diameter is smaller than bacteria, ranging from 0.007 to 0.2µm, bacteria cannot penetrate into the tunnel structure of the microsponges.The microsponge system can prevent excessive accumulation of ingredients within the epidermis and the dermis. Potentially, the microsponge system can reduce significantly the irritation of effective drugs without reducing their efficacy.

ABSTRACT
Sustained releases tablets have been used for reduced the dosing frequency and maintain the plasma drug concentration level within narrow therapeutic range. Aspirin used as antiplatelate agent and Atorvastatin is HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor which lowers the plasma concentration of cholesterol. Here in present study sustained release tablets of Aspirin and Atorvastatin prepared by using cellulose acetate phthalate (CAP) and microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) as a polymers. The sustain release tablet of Aspirin And Atorvastatin were prepared by wet granulation method and were substituted for film coating to mask the spotting from Atorvastatin and for protection from light. From the dissolution profile of F2B2 gives controlling the release up to 12 hrs with required value i.e. - 55.85 % for Aspirin and 54.78 % for Atorvastatin in 4 hrs respectively and 100.70 % for Aspirin and 100.60 % for Atorvastatin in 12 hrs respectively. The result of stability studies of batch F2B2 indicate that it is stable at 400C / 75 % ±0.5 % relative humidity as there was no significant differences observe for dissolution and average drug content data after two months.

Abstract:
The alcoholic and aqueous extracts of fruit of Carica papaya (Caricaceae)was investigated for anti-diarrhoealactivity in albino Wistar rats. The alcoholic and aqueous extracts was administered by the oral route at a concentration of 100, 200 and 400 mg/kg showed the significant dose dependent anti-diarrhoeal activity in Castor oil induced diarrhea and Magnesium sulphate induced diarrhea. Anti-diarrhoeal activity of the tested extracts was comparable with that of the standard drug Loperamide 3 mg/kg. The results lend support to the traditional use of C.  papaya in the treatment of diarrhoeal diseases.

ABSTRACT
Venous thromboembolism (VTE) complicates approximately 1 to 2 of 1,000 pregnancies, with pulmonary embolism (PE) being a leading cause of maternal mortality and deep vein thrombosis (DVT) an important cause of maternal morbidity. The main reason for the increased risk of thromboembolism in pregnancy is hypercoagulability, which has likely evolved to protect women from the bleeding challenges of miscarriage and childbirth. Women are at a 4- to 5-fold increased risk of thromboembolism during pregnancy and the postpartum period compared with when they are not pregnant. Eighty percent of the thromboembolic events in pregnancy are venous, with an incidence of 0.61 to 1.72 per 1000 pregnancies.Includes a history of thrombosis, inherited and acquired thrombophilia, maternal age greater than 35, certain medical conditions, and various complications of pregnancy and childbirth.

Despite the increased risk of VTE during pregnancy and the postpartum period, most women do not require anticoagulation. The intensity of the anticoagulation will depend on the indication and the monitoring will depend on the intensity. At the time of delivery, anticoagulation should be manipulated to reduce the risk of bleeding complications while minimizing the risk of thrombosis. There are no large trials of anticoagulants in pregnancy, and recommendations are based on case series, extrapolations from nonpregnant patients and the opinion of experts. Nonetheless, anticoagulants are believed to improve the outcome of pregnancy for women who have, or have had, VTE.

ABSTRACT:
Boswellia ovalifoliolata bal&henry is an endemic plant that has been suggested as useful in the treatment of various diseases (anti diabetic, anti inflammatory, antimicrobial , antifungal, antibacterial).In the present study, anti ulcer activity of MELBO was studied by pylorus ligated,aspirin induced gastric ulceration in albino rats. Anti ulcer activity was evaluated by pylorus ligation, aspirin induced ulcer method by using standard ranitidine (27mg/kg).The anti ulcer activity was assessed by determining the ulcer index, pH and acidity. MELBO (400mg/kg) produced a significant reduction in the ulcer index, PH and acidity when compared with ulcer control group and standard group. MELBO reduces ulcer, there by the present study indicates that boswellia ovalifoliolata bal&henry showed protective activity on gastric ulcer.

ABSTRACT :
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a progressive degenerative CNS disorder with slow onset with memory that leads to dementia. The drugs like barbiturates, alcohol, and diazepam will also impair learning and memory. Nootropic agents such as piracetam, pramiracetam, aniracetam, oxicetam and some of the herbal drugs are used to enhance cognitive function. The objective of the present study is to investigate the nootropic activity of methanolic extract of leaves of Clitoria ternatea.L (MELCT).Result showed that the MELCT improvement in the retention ability of normal and amnesic rats when compared to control and standard groups. It was suggested that in the MELCT could show beneficial improvement in cognitive disorders like Alzheimer’s disease and various neurogenerative disorders.
