A simple Reverse phase liquid chromatographic method has been developed and subsequently validated for estimation of lansoprazole in tablet dosage form. The separation was carried out using a mobile phase consisting of Methanol and 0.1% OPA (Ortho Phosphoric Acid) in the ratio of 70:30. The column used was C18 and 250 mm length with flow rate of 1.2 ml / min using UV detection at 285nm. The described method was linear over a concentration range of 10-50 μg/ml for the assay of Lansoprazole. The retention time of Lansoprazole was found to be 6.6 min, and all the results of analysis were validated statistically. The results of the study showed that the proposed RP-HPLC method is simple, rapid, precise and accurate, which is useful for the routine determination of Lansoprazole in tablet dosage form and in its pharmaceutical dosage forms.

Drugs are used in pharmaceutical formulation to serve the mankind and help them to maintain their Quality of Life. As per literature survey we found that there are a fair number of paper that explains the formulation of dosage form by certain drugs, but none of them with explaining the aspect of isolation and retrieving of the active drug from the dosage form. In the current study Paracetamol is taken as the active drug which is used to formulate the best batch of tablet and then the drug is retrieved back from the best found formulation by the help of specific solvent. This solvent was determined by trial of several combinations and the best selected results are mentioned. 96.24 % of the active agents were isolated by the help of selected solvent. The drug compatibility study was carried out by Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and the structure determination of the isolated active agent was carried out by the Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) results. The assay of isolated active agent was carried out by UV spectroscopy. All these analytical data helped to elucidate the structure of isolated active agent and was found similar to that of Paracetamol.

The aim of the present study was to isolate a new compound from the flowers of Tabebuia rosea. The structure of the isolated compound was elucidated through their physical and chemical methods. The isolated compound was characterized using various spectroscopic data such as UV, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, MS.

This research is directed towards Synthesis and quantitation of process-related impurity in Felodipine bulk and formulation. The synthesis of 1,4-Dihydro-2,6-Dimethyl-4-(m- chloro phenyl) pyridine-3,5 Dicarboxylate was identified, characterized, developed and validate by using various analytical techniques such as UV, IR, NMR  for the assessment of impurities in the bulk and formulation in Felodipine. The synthesis of of 1,4-Dihydro-2,6-Dimethyl-4-(m- chloro phenyl) pyridine-3,5 Dicarboxylate was performed by Hantzch pyridine synthesis, by using m-chlorobenzaldehyde, ethylacetoacetate, in presence of ammonia and methanol as a catalyst. The percentage yield was observed to be 80.29%. The preliminary evaluation was performed via melting point, elemental analysis and thin layer chromatography (TLC). Melting point of obtained synthesised compound was noticed to be 134-1370C, whereas Rate of flow ( Rf) value was estimated and found to be 0.70. The TLC of impurity was performed by using Benzene and Methanol (6:1). The structure confirmation of obtained synthesized impurity by using sophisticated analytical instrument viz, Fourier transform infra red( FT-IR), nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and ultra violet (UV) spectroscopy. The method was validated as per ICH guidelines and was found to be linear, precise, robust, accurate, rugged.

L-asparaginase is an anticancer agent, especially for acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Nine E.coli strains were screened forits ability to produce an extracellular L-asparaginase enzyme. The optimum culture conditions for L-asparaginase production was found at pH 8.0, Incubation time 48 h, and 37oC temperature. Highest yields of L-asparaginase(140.5 and 96.4 IU/ml) by E.coli strains using glucose and beef extract as sole carbon and nitrogen sources respectively. 0.6 fold of higher L-asparaginase activity (168.4 IU/ml) was recorded using pUC18 UV60 than the parent strain. 0.54 fold increased L-asparaginase activity (220.6 IU/ml)was observed using pUC18 NTG90.The molecular mass of L-asparaginase was determined by SDS-PAGE and it was found to be 29KDa.   

Lawsonia inermis (Lythraceae) commonly called as Henna or Mailanchi is known for its cosmetic properties. Henna is an important source of phytochemicals of immense medicinal and pharmaceutical significance such as alkaloids, naphthoquinone derivatives, aliphatic components, tannins, phenolic derivatives, coumarins, xanthones, flavanoids, therefore an effort to compile all the information reported on its phytochemical and pharmacological activities, so that interest could be diverted towards this dye herb, for the treatment and relief from various ailments and diseases. The resultant extracts were analyzed by thin layer chromatography (TLC), column chromatography, ultraviolet spectroscopy (UV), Infrared (IR) spectroscopy, and High performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) techniques UV analysis was done by diluting the extracts with their respective solvents. 2 to 3 peaks were observed for extracted samples at 212 nm, 238.60 nm and 283.30 nm in methanol extract, 241 nm in chloroform extract, 238 nm in chloroform: methanol extract and 272.20 nm in ethyl acetate extract respectively. In HPLC  compounds  methanol extract is carried out for HPLC separation, and mainly three peaks were observed at 2.057, 2.522, 4.133 min retention times, which is the confirmation of presence of three separated compounds.
