IICB today is engaged in research on diseases of national importance and biological problems of global interest, employing sophisticated state-of-the-art technology in keeping with the rapid and unprecedented momentum that life science research has gained globally over the last 50 years.

Hepatitis A, an acute, self-limiting liver infection is transmitted through the fecal oral route by a picovnavirus, hepatitis A Virus(HAV) (1). It is the major cause of acute viral hepatitis in children (2). HAV cause asymptomatic infection in young children and symptomatic infection in adults (3). A study shows symptomatic infection in 4-16% of children as compared to 75-95% of adults (1). The symptoms include jaundice, fever, abdominal pain, malaise, anorexia which resolve after onset within 1-2 months.

ABSTRACT
Oral route is the most preferred route for administration of various drugs because it is regarded as safest, most convenient and economical route. Recently researcher developed the fast disintegrating tablets with improved patient compliance and convenience. Fast disintegrating tablets are solid dosage forms which dissolve rapidly in saliva without chewing and additional water. Fast disintegrating tablets overcome the disadvantages of conventional dosage form especially dysphagia (difficulty in swallowing) in paediatric and geriatric patients. Natural materials have advantages over synthetic ones since they are chemically inert, nontoxic, less expensive, biodegradable and widely available. They can also be modified in different ways to obtain tailor- made materials for drug delivery systems and thus can compete with the available synthetic excipients. With the increasing interest in polymers of natural origin, the pharmaceutical world has compliance to use most of them in their formulations. The natural superdisintegrants can be used instead of synthetic superdisintegrants as they showed equal disintegrating property as that of synthetic agents or dispersible tablets.

SCOPE was established in the year 1999, under the banner of B. R. Nahata Smriti Sansthan in the memory of great social leader, renowned parliamentarian and educationalist, Late "Shri Bhanwarlalji Nahata". The institute is solely dedicated to Noble Profession of Pharmacy. The academic programs have been bench-marked against the best prevailing standards with regular up-gradation.

INTRODUCTION
Rock salt, also known as halite is the naturally occurring crystalline salt. It is the mineral form of sodium chloride or the table salt that we use. However, rock salt does not look like the regular table salt. Instead, it naturally forms in large isometric crystals. Moreover, rock salt can be white like table salt or it can be red, orange, yellow or blue in color. The color of rock salt basically depends on the amount, and the kind of impurities present in it. Along with sodium, rock salt contains many other minerals including, calcium, zinc, iron, magnesium, potassium, copper and several other trace minerals. Like table salt, rock salt too has great many uses. rock salt in massive bags for the purpose of keeping down ice on the roads in the winter.

Abstract:
Mouth dissolving tablets (MDT) are useful in patients, such as pediatric, geriatric, bedridden, or developmentally disabled, who may face difficulty in swallowing conventional tablets or capsules and liquid orals or syrup, leading to ineffective therapy, with persistent nausea, sudden episodes of allergic attack, or coughing for those who have an active life style. Over the past three decades, mouth dissolving tablets have gained considerable attention as a preferred alternative to conventional tablets and capsules due to better patient compliance The objective of this article is to review the development of MDTs, challenges in formulation,  benefit, limitation ,new MDT technologies and evaluation methodologies.

INTRODUCTION
Plant remains to be the enviable source of molecules of therapeutic significance. Since antiquity, these bio resources have been in use for variety of diseases in different part of the world. Regardless of the type of plant, targeted ailment or other such parameters, the one step which is one of the most important and common is removal of the molecule or fraction or part there of from the plant biomass. Several new methods besides the usual organic solvent extraction have been developed over the last few years for the extraction of primary and secondary metabolites. These are alcohol extraction with various biocompatible solvents, recovery of carboxylic acids and antibiotics with reactive extraction, dissociation extraction, aqueous two-phase extraction, and supercritical and near critical fluid extraction. Extraction and re-extraction processes are integrated into a single step by emulsion liquid membrane and solid supported liquid membrane extractions.

ABSTRACT:
The environmental biotechnology employs the application of genetic engineering to improve the efficiency and cost which is essential to the future wide spread exploitation of microorganisms to reduce the environmental burden of toxic substances. Now a days it can be achieved by bioremediation, is the process by using microorganism metabolism to remove pollutants and organic substances. It may be employed to attack specific soil contaminants, such as degradation chlorinated hydrocarbons by bacteria.
