Colourants can be considered as the cosmetics for food and dosage forms as the aesthetic appearance are enhanced by various colours. The colourants are strictly studied, regulated and monitored before it is used at the intended level. The colourants used may be either naturally occurring colours or synthetically prepared. A colourant is a substance which when applied to a food, drug or cosmetics is capable of imparting colour. FDA is responsible for regulating all colourants are safe to eat, contain only approved colours and are accurately labelled and certified. Colours are those which are synthetically prepared and are capable of imparting an intense uniform colour, less expensive and blend more easily to create a huge variety of hues. Good health makes a lot of sense, but it doesn’t make a lot of dollars. Manufactured food is pumped full of toxic chemicals meant to dress it up and entice consumers to buy. The synthetic colours are responsible for specific teratogenic and carcinogenic effects.","PeriodicalId":335276,"journal":{"name":"CURRENT MEDICAL AND DRUG RESEARCH","volume":"34 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-07-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116486352","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 symbiotic nematode-bacterial mutualism is highly specific. Novel EPN belonging to the family rhabditidae were reported for the first time from the Central Tuber Crops Research Institute. These new EPNs belonging to the Rhabditis sp. and their symbionts offer great scope for their exploitation of bio separation and identification of novel bioactive molecules. The present work is mainly focused on the antimicrobial activity of a new entomopathogenic bacteria Acinetobacter. The bacteria were isolated from infective third stage dauer juveniles of the nematode isolate collected from Vellayani, Thiruvananthapuram. The incubation time of the bacteria was standardized and cell free culture filtrate was prepared. The cell free culture filtrate was then separated into an organic and aqueous fraction. Antibacterial and antifungal activity of the organic fraction were tested. The organic fraction of 72 hr have highest antibacterial activity against B.subtilis with a zone diameter of 20 mm and lowest antibacterial activity with a zone diameter of 13 mm against P. aeruginosa and antifungal activity (29 mm zone diameter) in case of A. flavus and lower in case of F. oxysporum (18 mm zone diameter). Antimycotic and antibacterial activity was not observed in 24 hr organic fraction. From the study, it can be concluded that the organic fraction has significant antibacterial and antifungal activity. The present study also reveals that this entomopathogenic bacteria will be useful for the production of bioactive metabolites effective against bacterial and fungal diseases of plants and animals.","PeriodicalId":335276,"journal":{"name":"CURRENT MEDICAL AND DRUG RESEARCH","volume":"132 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-11-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121584393","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 way, the measurement of mucoadhesivity is a crucial step to design the mucoadhesive drug delivery systems. The strategy of the use of mucoadhesive polymeric materials to improve the efficacy of therapeutic treatments has been introduced as long ago and the approach is still of a great interest in the field of pharmaceutical sciences. Nowadays, various methods used to measure the mucoadhesivity are included in the present review. These systems are usually in vitro or ex vivo in nature, and due to their relative ease of implementation and cost-effectiveness, these are limited in scope and still a serious need to improve their trait. The selection of such systems for the in vivo studies is a big challenge. Hence, the new discovery in the field of mucoadhesive drug delivery could be a great achievement to the scientific society.","PeriodicalId":335276,"journal":{"name":"CURRENT MEDICAL AND DRUG RESEARCH","volume":"27 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-11-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126571637","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}

This plant produces a unique series of secondary metabolites called cannabinoids which exhibit a typical C21 terpenophenolic skeleton, responsible for its pharmacological profile. These cannabinoids interact with the endogenous endocannabinoid system, involved in the regulation of a variety of physiological and cognitive processes including fertility, pregnancy, during pre- and postnatal development, appetite, painsensation, mood and memory. Some of these pharmacological activities are so novel and interesting that justify the scientific research in these areas which is performing now. This process is expensive and takes a lot of time, and in the meantime, millions of people use cannabis herb, for medical treatments based in traditional use. Taking into consideration this fact, there are some countries have approved the medical use of cannabis, creating specific regulations.
