In the 3D printing technology there are many methods of manufacturing but I have used fused deposition modeling. In this materials used are polylactic acid, thermoplastic polyurethane and aluminum for manufacturing the prosthetic foot. Polylactic acid and thermoplastic polyurethane materials do not required any preheating of the bed in manufacturing. As the cost of the prosthetic foot are higher and we want to reduce its cost and make available in the market as many people are not able to have an prosthetic foot due to its high cost. It may help common people to afford this foot and obtain nearly to the gait cycle standards. In this paper we will be knowing how to reduce the cost of the multi axis prosthetic foot without any compromise with gait cycle","PeriodicalId":216660,"journal":{"name":"Pharmaceutical Analysis eJournal","volume":"17 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-03-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127349801","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 study aimed to estimate choline content of methanolic fruit and leaf extract of H. validus for the first timeusing High Performance-Thin Layer Chromatography spectrodensitometric analysis. Choline is an essential nutrient for liver health and it reduces fatty liver build up. For separation and quantitation of choline from methanolic fruit and leaf extract, methanol:water (8:2, v/v) was found suitable as mobile phase. Choline bitartrate was used as reference compound for the preparation of standard curve (r= 0.97874; Y = 8.624 0.080X; SDV = 9.35 %). For fruit extract the amount of choline present in the sample was estimated as 197.81 mg/100g d.wt from the peak area of spectrodensitogram. Choline content was found to be very high in leaf extract (in both defatted and non-defatted leaf extract) and it was >500 mg/100g d.wt. The high content of choline in leaf samples of H. validus substantiates the ethnomedicinal use of its leaf and shoot extract as a hepatoprotective agent.","PeriodicalId":216660,"journal":{"name":"Pharmaceutical Analysis eJournal","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-12-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128702444","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 illicit market of drugs consistently witnesses experiments to deceive law regulatory agencies during manufacturing and trading of these regulated drugs. Drug traders amalgamate core drug compound with other chemical moieties to deceive regulatory agencies, to enhance potency and to escalate the tempt for consumption. Diacetylmorphine, commonly called smack/heroin is substantially seized round the globe, which clearly indicates its large scale abuse. This study presents some unusual additives in 252 seized samples for suspected heroin, referred to Forensic Science Laboratory (FSL), Delhi in the year 2019. The samples were isolated, screened and identified using GC-MS technique. Besides other consistent additives, four unusual novel adulterants were detected in confiscated heroin samples in Delhi, India. The study will update forensic chemical experts in detection of new adulterants in seized drugs, besides disseminating awareness and knowledge among those concerned with drug regulation, monitoring and policy making.","PeriodicalId":216660,"journal":{"name":"Pharmaceutical Analysis eJournal","volume":"55 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126613167","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}
