Abstract
Patent right can be conformed  to any invention which can fulfill the criteria of novelty, non obviousness and commercial utility .To check the novelty and non obviousness aspect of invention, patent search and prior art search are very essential. Every country  has its own patent right. As India is growing very rapidly in pharmaceutical sector, there is a need of information about the patent search. Patent search has to be done for both granted patents and published patents as well as for  research publications. There are number of databases are available to do patent search which includes ..
(1) Free databases like google patents, USPTO, EPO, Free patents online etc.
(2) Paid databases like scifinder, micropat, patent insight pro etc.
Each databases have its own merits and demerits. Hear we have included statements  and all databases regarding patent search also how to file a patent in more than one country by single patent application.
The objective of this paper would be to provid ready reckner to any researcher  who would like to begin their patent search and will get better idea regarding scopes and limitation of his search to develop research strategy accordingly.

Abstract
A simple, specific, sensitive, rapid, precise and economical high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method has been developed for the estimation of Olmesartan medoxomil (OLM) and Atorvastatin calcium (ATC) in tablet dosage form by using acetonitrile- phosphate buffer pH 3.0 (40:60 v/v) as a solvent system. The method was carried out on a Phenomenex Gemini C18 (15 cm x 4.6 mm i.d., 5µm particle size) column, at flow rate 0.9 mL/min. Detection was carried out at 252 nm. The retention time of OLM and ATC was 3.19 and 4.63 min, respectively. The two drugs follow Beer-Lambert’s law over the concentration range of 8 – 40 µg/mL for OLM and 4 – 20 µg/mL for ATC. Validation of proposed method was carried out for its accuracy, precision, specificity and ruggedness according to ICH guidelines. The proposed method can be successfully applied in routine work for the determination of Olmesartan medoxomil and Atorvastatin calcium in combined dosage form.

The journey of Yashoda Hospitals started way back in 1989 as a small clinic, where Dr G Surender Rao practised paediatrics. With his international education and experience he became one of Hyderabad’s leading child specialists in a short span of time. Not satisfied with personal success he joined forces with his brother, Mr Ravinder Rao, an experienced business leader, to start Yashoda Hospitals.

HIGH - THROUGHPUT screening (HTS) is an approach to drug discovery that has gained widespread popularity over the last three or four years. HTS is the process of assaying a large number of potential effectors of biological activity against targets (a biological event). The methods of HTS are applied to the screening of combinatorial chemistry, genomics, protein, and peptide libraries. The goal of HTS is to accelerate drug discovery by screening large libraries often composed of hundreds of thousands of compounds (drug candidates) at a rate that may exceed 20,000 compounds per week. This paper will focus on assay adaptations, robotic equipment, and implementation strategies that allow HTS programs to be successful. Ultrahigh throughput screening (UHTS) issues (testing of 100,000 compounds / day) will also be discussed.

Summary
Objective
The present study was undertaken to further evaluate the adverse effect potential of Prulifloxacin to induce arthropathy in rats with reference to its duration of treatment.

Methods
Groups of one month old young rats were administered Prulifloxacin intraperitonially 200 mg/kg and 400 mg/kg doses for 15 and 30 days respectively. Control group received normal saline. At the end of treatment
period, animals in each group were subjected to serum alkaline phosphatase estimation. The serum alkaline phosphatase assay was carried out by using alkaline phosphatase reagent kit.
