National Institute of Nutrition (NIN) was founded by Sir Robert McCarrison in the year 1918 as ‘Beri-Beri’ Enquiry Unit in a single room laboratory at the Pasteur Institute, Coonoor, Tamil Nadu. Within a short span of seven years, this unit blossomed into a "Deficiency Disease Enquiry" and later in 1928, emerged as full-fledged "Nutrition Research Laboratories" (NRL) with Dr. McCarrison as its first Director.

ABSTRACT:-
β- lactam antibiotics are  the most commonly prescribed drugs. The β- lactam group of antibiotics are a broad class of antibiotics, consisting of all antibiotic agents that contain a β- lactam nucleus in their molecular structures. This includes penicillin derivatives (penams), cephalosporins (cephems), monobactams, and carbapenems. Most of the β- lactam antibiotics work by inhibiting cell wall biosynthesis in the bacterial organisms and are the most widely used group of antibiotics. Bacteria often develop resistance to β- lactam antibiotics by synthesizing that attacks the β- lactam ring. To overcome this resistance, β- lactam antibiotics are often given with β- lactamase inhibitors such as clavulanic acid. Presnted article deals about the structure of various marketed as well as drugs under investigation containing β-lactam nucleus and  their pharmacological activities. The presented article is related wth the various β- lactam derivative with their various pharmacological activities.

ABSTRACT:
Malaria is an infectious disease caused by a parasite (plasmodium) which is transmitted from human by the bite of infected female Anopheles mosquitoes. Four species of the parasite plasmodium are responsible for Malaria in humans: Plasmodium vivax, Plasmodium malariae, Plasmodium ovale, Plasmodium falciparum.
This disease cause a nearly 300 to 400 million clinical episodes of malaria occur worldwide, out of which 1.5 to 2 million die every year. So this is also a most dangerous disease in children. This review reveals the treatment of malaria in paediatrics.

ABSTRACT:
Cefixime Trihydrate is an orally active third generation cephalosporin. It has plasma half-life of 3-4hrs; it is active against Gram+ve as well as Gram-ve bacteria. The present investigation involves the enhancement of dissolution rate of cefixime by using various solid dispersion techniques with a view to prolong the drug release in the gastrointestinal tract and consequently into the plasma. The solid dispersions were formulated by using the Croscarmelose sodium as a disintegrant. The solid dispersions were prepared by solvent evaporation, kneading, Physical mixing, Co-grinding techniques. In solvent evaporation technique, Dichloromethane is used as a solvent and in kneading technique water is used as solvent. The prepared solid dispersions were evaluated for in-vitro dissolution studies. Among the 5 formulations F5 sows the good results.

ABSTRACT:
Electrophoresis is also called as cataphoresis. It is the motion of dispersed particles relative to a fluid under the influence of spatially uniform electric field. This electro kinetic phenomenon was observed for the first time in 1807 by Reuss (Moscow State University), who noticed that the application of a constant electric field caused clay particles dispersed in water to migrate. It is ultimately caused by the presence of a charged interface between the particle surface and the surrounding fluid. Electrophoresis is a rapid separation technique.Factors governing the migration of ions are Charge of ions, Size of the ions, Viscosity of the medium, Voltage applied, pH of buffer and ionic strength. Factors affecting electrophoresis are Molecular characteristics (size, shape), Buffer Properties, Electric Field Characteristics, Temperature.

ABSTRACT:
Hepatitis is a general term meaning inflammation of the liver and can be caused by a variety of different viruses such as hepatitis-A, B, C, D, and E. Since the development of jaundice is a characteristic of liver disease, a correct diagnosis can only be made by testing patient’s sera for the presence of specific anti-viral antibiotics. Transmission of HAV is typically by the faecal, oral route. Hepatitis A was formerly called infectious hepatitis, Epidemic hepatitis, Epidemic jaundice, Catarrhal jaundice, type A hepatitis, HA.
