    ABSTRACT
    Genotoxicity describes the possessions of chemical agents that damage the genetic information within a cell causing mutations, which may lead to cancer. Heritable changes can influence either somatic cells of the organism or germ cells to be passed on to future generations. As a result, many urbane techniques including Ames Assay, in vitro and in vivo Toxicology Tests, and Comet Assay have been developed to evaluate the chemicals probable to cause DNA damage that may lead to cancer. The genotoxic substances provoke damage to the genetic material in the cells through exchanges with the DNA sequence and structure. Genotoxicity testing is to resolve if a substrate will sway genetic material or may cause cancer. Genotoxic Chemotherapy is the treatment of cancer with the use of one or more genotoxic drugs. The treatment is traditionally part of standardized regime. By utilizing the destructive properties of genotoxins treatments aims to induce DNA damage into cancer cells.

    ABSTRACT
    The subsistence of a human H/h genetic polymorphism was first recognized by the innovation of an individual devoid of the H antigen on red cells in Bombay who had antibodies in plasma reacting with all the red cells exhibiting the normal red cell ABO phenotypes. These persons were genetically termed as homozygous hh or Bombay phenotype. H-deficient Bombay phenotype is exceptional, since it occurs in about 1 in 10,000 individuals in India and 1 per 1,000,000 individuals in Europe. After the first report of Oh phenotype from Mumbai in 1952 by Bhende, numerous other workers detected this weird phenotype in India. The complexity with the Bombay phenotype is that the individuals having blood group of Bombay phenotype (Oh) can either receive autologous donation or blood from an individual of Bombay phenotype only; no other blood will match in case of an emergency blood transfusion. The aim of present study was to communicate the information about rare blood entity and to review the previous case reports.

    ABSTRACT
    Anasarca is the medical term referred to an individual who experiences generalized oedema. Anasarca is diverse from slight swelling or oedema that occurs mainly in the feet. Anasarca is very familiar in patients with heart failure and kidney failure. Anasarca happens because there is an underlying problem. A selection of diagnostic methods can be used in a challenge to make a diagnosis of anasarca. Formerly anasarca and the underlying problem is diagnosed, suitable measures will be made to treat the problem. In this section, we can communicate the information regarding anasarca.

    Abstract
    A  simple,  precise  and  accurate  reversed phase liquid chromatographic method has been  developed  for  the  assay  of  azithromycin  in  powder  for oral suspension. The chromatographic separation was achieved on a Asahipak ODP 40 E(250 mm × 4.6 mm, 5 μm)  analytical  column.  A  mixture  of  methanol–ammonium dihydrogen phosphate (0.05M)  (30:70, v/v)  (pH 9.0)  was  used  as  the  mobile  phase,  at   a  flow  rate  of 1.5 mLmin-1  and  detector  wavelength  at  210 nm. The retention time of  azithromycin was  found to be at  8.0 min. The validation of the proposed method was carried out for specificity, linearity, accuracy, precision, robustness and stability indicating assay. The linear  dynamic range is from   382–1208 μgmL-1 for  azithromycin. The percentage recovery  obtained  for  azithromycin is 101.0%.  The developed method can be used for pharmaceutical dosage form and  in process testing.
