Microspheres are typically free flow powders consisting of proteins or synthetic polymers which are biodegradable in nature. And ideally having a particle size less than 200μm. Microsphere after ball bearing effects because of their spherical shape. The therapeutic efficacy of microspheres contain drug depends upon their characteristics that can be altered in required terms by altering materials, methods, polymers or techniques used. A Microspheres has its drug dispersed throughout the particle i.e. the internal structure is a matrix of drug and polymeric excipients. It is the reliable means to deliver the drug to the target site with specificity, if modified, and to maintain the desired concentration at the site of interest without untoward effects. Microspheres received much attention not only for prolonged release, but also for targeting of anticancer drugs to the tumor. In future by combining various other strategies, microspheres will find the central place in novel drug delivery, particularly in diseased cell sorting, diagnostics, gene and genetic materials, safe, targeted and effective in vivo delivery and supplements as miniature versions of diseased organ and tissues in the body.
Infertility is a common problem that requires timely and sensitive intervention. The use of In-Vitro Fertilization (IVF) is now becoming a popular experience in developing countries. Infertility can be managed primarily by improving lifestyle, diet, exercise, and Couples should be advised of the importance of regular sexual intercourse every 2 or 3 days, regardless of the woman’s cycle. A drug like clomifene use in the primary treatment of infertility. Before and during the IVF nursing staff plays an important role in executes treatment plans that fertility doctors formulate with couples starting at the initial visit and also plays important role in supporting patients Psychologically. Some complications like multiple births, sex ratio distortions, and the spread of infectious diseases.
Chitosan was hydrophobically modified as N-Butyryl chitosan (NBC), N-Lauroyl chitosan (NLC) were synthesized and characterized by FTIR, NMR, XRD, modified chitosan were having about 14 % degree of substitution and varying solubility. Further evaluation of synthesized N-acyl chitosan to loaded Zolmitriptan HCl as nanoparticle by ionotropic method with cross linking by TPP. Average particle size, drug loading, entrapment efficiency and in-vitro mucoadhesion of Zolmitriptan HCl loaded nanoparticle was 150.7±3.3nm, 24.80±1.1% and 54.96±3.8% respectively, with positive zeta potential which were directly correlated with increases bulkiness of the acyl substitution in the modified chitosan except zeta potential was found inversely correlated. TEM and SEM imaging relieved spherical structure of nanoparticle. In vitro release of Zolmitriptan HCl in 1.2 pH HCl buffer and pH 7.4 phosphate buffer solutions showed biphasic release pattern best fitted with Korsmeyer’s-Peppas kinetics with fickian transport mechanism. Acylated chitosan showed sustained release reducing with increasing length of acyl group. Result of the present study showed that hydrophobically modified acylated chitosan can be useful for achieving sustained release controlled by acylation modification.
This review assesses the use of Calendula officinalis extract in antihyperlipidemic activities, cardiovascular activities, antidiabetic, hepatoprotective activities; anthelmintic activities; antioxidant activities; anti-inflammatory activities; wound healing activities; anticancer activities; hepatoprotective activities, antibacterial activities; and anti-HIV activities. C. officinalis extract has been shown to have some remedial effects and has been used in herbal remedies, according to this review. To examine the effect of calendula officinalis, larger as well as well-designed random control trials are needed. Calendula officinalis is a flowering plant that comes under the Asteraceae family. This herb is used as curative in Europe, China, and India. It's been the subject of a number of chemical and pharmacological research, and it's also known as "African marigold." It's commonly utilized in indigenous medicine to treat jaundice, wound recovery, plasma cleansing, and spasmolytic treatment. A vast range of chemicals, including amino acids, triterpenoids, coumarines, quinones, flavonoids, volatile oils, and carotenoids, have been found through chemical analysis.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
