It was examined that interparticle spacing between nanoparticles was reduced after incorporation into the matrix and particles came close to each other. TEM studies have shown that during E-beam irradiation ~13nm Au nanoparticles contacted with each other along with the shrinkage of the silica gel or as well as the removal of surfactant layer, and transformed into different shapes of particles such as dumbbell and chain-like particles as per the interparticle gap. This nanoparticle-gel matrix has the potential for applications in sensing, nonlinear optics, and catalysis. This work enhances the understanding of the role of silica gel and E-beam irradiation in directing the coalescence of nanoparticles.","PeriodicalId":14413,"journal":{"name":"International Research Journal Of Pharmacy","volume":"28 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134999417","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The extract of Glycyrrhiza glabra was prepared by subjecting crude drug to hot continuous percolation method using Soxhlet apparatus using distilled water and ethanol. The floating matrix tablets of Glycyrrhiza glabra was prepared by wet granulation technique using extract of Glycyrrhiza glabra, HPMC K15M as polymer, starch/honey as binder and sodium bicarbonate & citric acid as effervescent agents by 23 factorial design. The independent variables are polymer (X1), concentrations of effervescence agents (X2) and binders used for granulation (X3). The dependent variables are hardness (Y1), buoyancy lag time (Y2), total floating time (Y3), and in-vitro drug release (Y4). The compatibility studies showed that there is no chemical interaction between the drug, polymer and the excipients used in the tablets. The prepared floating tablets were subjected to all post compression parameters such as hardness, friability, swelling capacity, buoyancy, total floating time, drug content &in-vitro drug release and were found to be within normal limits. Based on drug content, buoyancy lag time and in-vitro drug release the formulations F8 was found to be the promising system for anti-asthmatic therapy.

In this present study, efforts were made to develop an intervention with a poly herbal formulation which was prepared from ethanolic leaf extracts of Chromolaena odorata, Tridax procumbens, Euphorbia hirta Linn. The impact of poly herbalism is assessed for its wound healing property by using excision wound model and anti-inflammatory property by using formalin induced paw oedema model. For wound healing assessment two polyherbal formulations F1 and F2 are prepared with 2% and 4% W/W. These formulations were examined for stability studies. F1(*p<0.005) and F2 (**p<0.001) have shown significant wound closure and faster epithelialisation when compared to standard Povidone-Iodine (5%) ointment (**p<0.001). For assessing anti-inflammatory activity, the poly herbal formulations are prepared as 2% (F1) and 4% (F2) solutions. The doses from each formulation are given as 100 mg/kg, 200 mg/kg and 300 mg/kg to different groups of animals. Both the poly herbal formulations have shown significant results F1(*p<0.05, **p<0.005) and F2 (***p<0.0005, ****p<0.0001) respectively when compared to standard Indomethacin 4 mg/kg dose (****p<0.0001). This study has revealed that poly herbal formulations have shown better anti-inflammatory and wound healing properties due to the synergism of the phytochemicals present in these plant extracts which may lead to future developments of potential poly herbal formulations in the treatment of wounds and inflammatory mediated diseases.","PeriodicalId":14413,"journal":{"name":"International Research Journal Of Pharmacy","volume":"33 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-03-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81016886","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this 21st century, a huge part of the world's population still depends mostly on the conventional system of medicine as these medicines are economical, easily available, and have minimal side effects. Acacia arabica commonly known as Babool, indigenously found in India possessed a variety of pharmacological effects when used in different traditional formulations. There are about 1350 Acacia species available worldwide. In India, Acacia arabica is widely spread in Jammu, Himachal Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh, Punjab, Madhya Pradesh, Orissa Bihar, and Andhra Pradesh. The use of Acacia arabica in the traditional formulation is popularized due to its diverse pharmacological activity. Recent research on Acacia arabica revealed that the plant is rich in antioxidants such as catechin, ellagic acid, epigallocatechin, kaempferol, gallic acid and is used in the treatment of inflammation, pain, diabetes, allergy, asthma, bronchitis, amoebiasis, dermatitis, and cardiovascular diseases like hypertension, atherosclerosis, and myocardial infarction. Acacia arabica is also found to be efficient in infection caused by bacterial, fungus, and protozoa. In this present review, our sincere efforts have been given to summarize the various biological active ingredients of Acacia arabica and their pharmacological effects reported by different researchers.","PeriodicalId":14413,"journal":{"name":"International Research Journal Of Pharmacy","volume":"10 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75396182","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Interferential therapy is a form of electrical current that is primarily used for relief from pain. It is said to be effective in case of low back pain. Both Katibasti and Interferential therapy are commonly used treatment modalities in sciatica, hence the present study is intended to compare the efficacy of Katibasti and Interferential therapy in the treatment of Gridhrasi. Thirty-four subjects of Gridhrasi were randomly distributed in 2 groups (A and B) of 15 subjects each. Group A subjects were treated with Katibasti using Maha Vishagarbha Taila for 7 days. Group B subjects were treated with Interferential Therapy for 7 days. Follow up was done on the 14th day.
