Abstract
The present study includes a simple, sensitive and specific UV method development and validation for the quantitation of Drotaverine in bulk and pharmaceutical dosage form. The λmax was found to be 357nm by taking acetonitrile and water (50:50) as solvent. The validation of the proposed method was carried out as per ICH Guidelines. It was found that the drug was shown the linearity between the range 5-90µg/ml. The regression of the curve was y = 0.022x - 0.033. The developed method was found to be with %RSD 0.548499 for Drotaverine. The %RSD for intra-day and inter-day precision was lower than 2%. The percentage recovery values of pure drug from the reanalyzed solution of formulation were in between 95.68-99.5%. The ruggedness of the method was studied by taking in account of different analyst and by varying the temperature. Based on the performance characteristic the proposed UV method was found to suitable for the estimation of Drotaverine in bulk and pharmaceutical dosage form.

Abstract
In this study Cytotoxic potential of two Indian medicinal plant extracts were investigated. The invitro cytotoxic potentiality investigated as the ability of these two extracts to inhibit tumour cell line growth with help of MTT & Trypan blue assay. With this investigation we had also focused on angiogenesis. The cell lines studied are MCF7, A549 and DU145 with the methanolic extract of Alium sativum (MEAS) (garlic) and Emblica officinalis (MEEO) (amla). Both drugs are extracted by maceration method. The extract were concentrated & dissolved in DMSO Solvent & stock solution is prepared of conc. 1mg/10 ml. from which different conc. are prepared as 100, 10, 1, 0.1,0 .001 µg/ml. Both plant extracts preapared concentration are exposed in MCF7, A549 & DU145 in 96 well plate in which MTT dye was added later & allow it for 96 hr. after incubation period absorbance was taken in spectrophotometer at 517nm. With same trypan blue also performed & Counting of cell was done on inverted microscope.  Results indicates that the above plant extracts hsowing anticancer and antiangiogenesis activity of Same plant extract were studied on tube formation cell based models also. From this study we can conclude that both drugs possess anticancer activity for MCF7, A549 & DU145 for different concentrations.

Abstract
Validation has become one of the pharmaceutical industry’s most recognized and discussed subjects. It is a critical success factor in product approval and ongoing commercialization. This article provide brief introduction about the pharmaceutical process validation and its importance according to regulatory provision, also provide the answer of question like why to do, when to do and how to do it. This work is to present an introduction and general overview on process validation of pharmaceutical manufacturing process. Quality is always an imperative prerequisite when we consider any product. Therefore, drugs must be manufactured to the highest quality levels. End-product testing by itself does not guarantee the quality of the product. Quality assurance techniques must be used to build the quality into the product at every step and not just tested for at the end. In pharmaceutical industry, Process Validation performs this task to build the quality into the product because according to ISO 9000:2000, it had proven to be an important tool for quality management of pharmaceuticals.
