Abstract
Objective: Clerodendrum serratum.(L)belong to family Verbenaceae a have long history as source of potential chemotherapeutic agents in Ayurvedic and Unani system of medicine.Clerodendrum serratum (L), Ban-Bakri is commonly known as Bharangi in Hindi and Bhargavi in Sanskrit. It is found from 1000 to 1800 meters above mean sea level. It is distributed in warmer regions of Deccan and Carnatic, West Coast districts of Tamil Nadu, Kumaon, Sikkim, and Assam.Clerodendrum serratumis one of the important plants from traditional system of medicine found all over the world.

Abstract:
The main concept of the study was to find out the penetration of boots ibuprofen gel at different frequencies such as 20 kHz and 40 kHz through cellulose membrane exposed to ultrasound. Different sonicator bath were used for different frequencies. Ultrasound has been used to enhance penetration of ibuprofen from transdermal preparation. Boots ibuprofen gel was used in the experiment. Ibuprofen is a NSAIDs drug which is used to enhance healing effect against inflammation, pain and analgesics.
Frequency, intensities, duty cycle are the important factor. In this experiment frequency variable was used. 20 kHz and 40 kHz frequencies were used in this experiment.Boots ibuprofen gel max (10%) was used to measure the penetration of ibuprofen through the cellulose membrane exposed to ultrasound. By using the Franz diffusion cell penetration of ibuprofen was found out. An amount of ibuprofen permeated through cellulose membrane was found out using High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC).       Penetration of  ibuprofen was found out more lower frequency.  However the penetration ibuprofen also increase compare to control in first hour. The ANOVA result: sample assuming equal variances were performed to find out significance difference (P<0.05) between control and different ultrasound frequencies and also the rate gradients were measured. The P value got for the control and 40 kHz frequency was 0.123, which indicate that there is no significance difference observed for permeation of ibuprofen from gel . P value of control and 20 kHz frequency applying for 2 min was 0.05 which was similar P value, which shows that nearly significance observed between two value. The P value of control and 20 kHz for 5 minute was 0.002 which indicate that there was a significance observed between this two value.   From the result it shows that lower frequency with more time give good penetration result.

BRIEF REVIEW ON CLINICAL TRIALS

ABSTRACT:
Any investigation in human subjects intended to discover or verify the clinical, pharmacological and/or other pharmacodynamic effects of an investigational product(s), and/or to identify any adverse reactions to an investigational product(s), and/or to study absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion of an investigational product(s) with the object of ascertaining its safety and/or efficacy. The terms clinical trial and clinical study are synonymous. Clinical trials examine the safety and efficacy of interventions, or treatments, in human subjects. This manuscript focuses on pharmaceutical clinical trials. The word subject is used deliberately here, since all participants in clinical trials are subjects, even if they are under the care of a personal physician, and therefore patients in that context, at the time of the trial. The pharmaceutical industry is now a more significant investor in clinical trials, but in addition to these opportunities, it is being challenged by the financial impact of managed care and medicaid regulations on academic medical-center revenues. Besides that, there is growing public concern about our systems for protection of human subjects, along with some conflicts. There are public expectations that clinical research will yield substantial advances in the health of the public. Once clinical research studies are completed and a drug has been approved for marketing by a regulatory agency, reports of the drug’s safety and efficacy will be published in the clinical literature. This dissemination of the results provides clinicians and research scientists with evidence of the beneficial administration of the drug.

This paper demonstrates the concept of business ethics with various attributes, factors and impact on society and also emphasize on code of ethics and its importance. Present paper also discusses common ethical problems within a pharmaceutical organization. A practical approach as case studies related to pharmaceutical industries will identify the issues and implications for ethical development, advancement and globalization of business ethics. Concept of paper focuses attention on the development of an attitude which should be adopted to understand various terms of ethics and development for social and business concern.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus is caused due to deficiency in production of insulin by the pancreas, or by the ineffectiveness of the insulin producD.Diabetes mellitus often referred to as diabetes—is a condition in which the body either does not produce enough, or does not properly respond to, insulin, a hormoneproduced in the pancreas. Insulin enables cells to absorb glucose in order to turn it into energy. This causes glucose to accumulate in the blood, leading to various potential complications.

To overcome such complication Indian scientist have develop new techniques for diabetics i.e. single shot insulin which ,  is very essentials, blessful, create new ray of hope to the patients of diabetics ,give relief upto 120 days.

A simple, precise, accurate and rapid high performance thin layer chromatographic method has been developed and validated for the simultaneous estimation of atorvastatin calcium and olmesartan medoxomil in combined dosage forms. The stationary phase used was TLC aluminium plate precoated with silica gel 60F254. The mobile phase used was a mixture of acetonitrile: chloroform: methanol: 10% glacial acetic acid (7: 2: 1.5: 0.1 v/v/v/v). The system was found to give compact spot for both atorvastatin and olmesartan (Rf value 0.5±0.01 and 0.76±0.02 respectively). The densitometric analysis of spot was carried out in reflectance mode at 253 nm. The method was validated in terms of linearity, specificity, precision, robustness and accuracy. The calibration curve was found to be linear in the range of 200 to 800 ng/spot for atorvastatin and 400 to 1600 ng/spot for olmesartan. The limit of detection and the limit of quantification for the atorvastatin were found to be 178.239 and 540.11 ng/spot and for olmesartan 40.10 and 121.51 ng/spot, respectively. The proposed method can be successfully used to determine the drug content of marketed tablet formulation.

Abstract
High performance thin layer chromatographic finger print parameters had been developed for  Piper betle leaf oilisolated from karpoori, sirugamani and vellaikodi variety available in tamilnadu to fix standards. At shorter wavelength (254 nm) resolution was better for, so, this wavelength can be taken for obtaining optimum HPTLC finger printing for  volatile oil of this medicinal plant leaves. As per the data,   Karpoori variety of piper betle leaf oil  only showed  presence of  eugenol content. So, essential oil obtained from this variety should be included in the commercial tooth paste to get  antimicrobial activity against dental pathogens when compared to other studied variety.

Abstract
A simple, sensitive, rapid, robust and reproducible method for the determination of Quetiapine fumarate in bulk and pharmaceutical formulation (Tablets) was developed using reverse phase high performance liquid chromatographic method (RP-HPLC). The RP-HPLC analysis was performed isocratically on XTERRA C18 (4.6X150mm), analytical column using a mobile phase consisting of ortho phosphorus buffer and acetonitirle in the Ratio of 60:40v/v, with a flow rate of 0.6ml/min. The analyte was monitored with UV detector at 290nm. The developed method Quetiapine fumarate elutes at a run time of 10 min. The proposed method is having linearity in the concentration range from 40 to 80 μg/mL of Quetiapine fumarate. The present method was validated with respect to system suitability, linearity, precision, limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantification (LOQ), accuracy (recovery), ruggedness, and robustness. The proposed method can be readily utilized for bulk drug and pharmaceutical formulations.
