“…But, that study has revealed that hypericin content varies from a mere 5% to just 50% of the label claim (0.3%). Similarly, content of Azadirachtin A is found to vary significantly (617.3 to 1149.65 ppm) in different batches of neem oil formulations (Aremu and Femi‐Oyewo, ). These studies suggest that similar products from different manufacturers may have widely variable content of marker(s).…”

Stability testing is an important component of herbal drugs and products (HDPs) development process. Drugs regulatory agencies across the globe have recommended guidelines for the conduct of stability studies on HDPs, which require that stability data should be included in the product registration dossier. From the scientific viewpoint, numerous chemical constituents in an herbal drug are liable to varied chemical reactions under the influence of different conditions during its shelf life. These reactions can lead to altered chemical composition of HDP and consequently altered therapeutic profile. Many reports on stability testing of HDPs have appeared in literature since the last 10 years. A review of these reports reveals that there is wide variability in temperature (-80 to 100 °C), humidity (0-100%) and duration (a few hours-36 months) for stability assessment of HDPs. Of these, only 1% studies are conducted in compliance with the regulatory guidelines for stability testing. The present review is aimed at compiling all stability testing reports, understanding key challenges in stability testing of HDPs and suggesting possible solutions for these. The key challenges are classified as chemical complexity and biochemical composition variability in raw material, selection of marker(s) and influences of enzymes.

“…Droplet size is an important factor for stability of oil emulsion, droplet size in nano range results in good stability of an emulsion, normally surfactants stabilize oil-in-water emulsion reported that surfactants with lower Hydrophile-Lipophile balance HLB value (3)(4)(5)(6) favors the formation of water-in-oil emulsion and surfactants with higher HLB value (8)(9)(10)(11)(12)(13)(14)(15)(16)(17)(18) favor the formation of oil-in-water emulsion. Tween20 was opted for making oil-in-water emulsion because of its high HLB value of 16.7, which favors formation of oil-in-water type of emulsion.…”

Abbreviations: PIT, phase inversion temperature; PEG, poly ethylene glycol; CMC, carboxy methyl cellulose; HLB, hydrophile lipophile balance Essential oils are volatile, natural, complex compounds characterized by a strong odor and are formed by aromatic plants as secondary metabolites. An oil is "essential" in the sense that it contains the "essence of" the plant's fragrance-the characteristic fragrance of the plant from which it is derived known for their antiseptic, i.e. bactericidal, virucidal, fungicidal, medicinal and fragrance properties etc. They are used in embalmment, preservation of foods and as antibacterial, analgesic, sedative, anti-inflammatory, spasmolytic J Textile Eng Fashion Technol. 2017;1(2):42-47 42 AbstractFinishing of various textile fabrics to make it more marketable and its demand is increasing due to global competition, and increasing globalization has created many challenges to the textile researchers and industrialist. The rapid growth in technical textiles and their end uses has generated many opportunities for the application of innovative finishes. The next phase of growth and development of this industry will be focused on three main aspects:a. Value-added products with enhanced functionality b. Apparels c. Sustainable products.

“…They are thermodynamically stable and translucent dispersions of oil and water with a droplet size in the range 100-600 nm. Nanoemulsions are prepared by lowenergy methods such as phase inversion temperature (PIT) emulsification, by phase inversion composition or by high shear forces using high-pressure homogenizers or ultrasonic generators [5,6]. Mixed emulsions: these are systems consisting of two different disperse droplets that do not mix in a continuous medium Several breakdown processes may occur on storage depending on particle size distribution and density difference between the droplets and the medium [7,8].…”
