PRECLINICAL EXPERIMENTAL SCREENING MODELS FOR THE ASSESSMENT OF ANTI-CANCER DRUGS Cancer, according to WHO, is a generic terminology for a group of diseases that are characterized by abnormal growth of cells. This uncontrolled, abnormal growth is beyond the natural boundaries of normal cell growth, which can then metastasize to adjoining or distant sites of the body and/or to the organs. Cancer is the second most leading cause of mortality and has resulted in 9.8 million deaths... C. Singh, S. Khan, F. Bamne and I.

NANOEMULSION: A SNAPSHOT ON DEVELOPMENT, CHARACTERIZATION, APPLICATIONS, PATENTS AND CLINICAL TRIALS Nanoemulsionis a special case of emulsion. It is nano-sized emulsion used as a carrier. It has the ability to deliver the drug to the target site. It is a good vehicle for the controlled delivery of the drug. It is prepared by the high energy and low energy emulsification method. Emulsifier plays an important role in stabilizing the nanoemulsion. It is anisotropic and thermo-dynamically stable sys... R. Deshmukh, B. Sharma, R. K. Harwansh and B.

BIOAVAILABILITY AND BIOEQUIVALENCE OF BIOSIMILARS Biosimilars are the most promising medicines for treating complex diseases. The first biosimilar was approved in India in 2000, and since then, there is no looking back. CDSCO in collaboration with DBT has developed new guidelines in 2012, which were revised in 2016 for pre and post-marketing approval of biosimilars in India. India is one of the leading manufacturers of biosimilars catering to dom... A. Arora * and A.

IN-VITRO MUTAGENIC, GENOTOXIC AND ANEUGENIC POTENTIAL OF OMEPRAZOLE The aim of this investigation was to re-evaluate the in-vitro mutagenic, genotoxic, and aneugenic potential of omeprazole through the Ames test, comet (SCGE), and cytokinesis-block micronucleus assays (CBMN), as previous reports on the mutagenic and genotoxic effects of omeprazole are scarce and inconclusive. The results of this study indicated a negative mutagenic effect through the Ames test. Co... V. Kutsar, S. LaFolette, J. Ringenberg, R. Dudley and A.

FORMULATION AND EVALUATION OF GASTRORETENTIVE METRONIDAZOLE TABLETS USING BRACHYSTEGIA EURYCOMA GUM This study was conducted to evaluate gastroretentive metronidazole tablets formulated using Brachystegia eurycoma gum as a matrix. The gum was isolated from powdered dried Brachystegia eurycoma seeds. Gastroretentive metronidazole tablets were produced by direct compression technique using Brachystegia eurycoma gum, sodium carboxymethylcellulose, or their combination as the matrix. Sodium bicarbon... S. E. Okafo *, C. A. Alalor and J. I. Ordu Department of Pharmaceutics and Industrial Pharmacy, Faculty of Pharmacy, Delta State University, Abraka, Nigeria.

EVALUATION OF PLASMA GLUCOSE AND SERUM LIPID PROFILE LEVELS AMONG STUDENTS IN NNEWI CONSUMING GLYCINE MAX (SOYA BEAN) Medicinal plants are becoming globally recognized because of their acclaimed therapeutic potentials. This study evaluated the plasma glucose and serum lipid profile levels among university students consuming Glycine max (Soya bean) in Nnewi, Nigeria. A total of thirty (30) apparently healthy male subjects aged between 18 and 30 years were randomly recruited from medical students to serve as both t... I. C. Maduka, R. A. Analike, S. N.
