ABSTRACT

Micronutrients are necessary for the development and continued existence of plant life, as well as the nourishment of crops. Boron and zinc are found to have beneficial effects on the growth, production, and quality of a wide variety of crops, such as tomatoes, chilies, brinjal, cauliflower, broccoli, okra, and carrots, amongst many others. The different studies show that boron in soil and foliar increases tomato vegetative growth and production. Boron 2 kg/ha in the soil and 150 ppm or 3.8 mg/L foliar spray improve yield. According to investigations, adding boron to chilli at 1-3 kg/ha increases yield. Boron, vermicompost, and magnesium are also claimed to increase yields in significant amount. The applying boron on brinjal produced a significantly higher yield, 26% yield increase over control. Applying borax in the soil and foliar concentration at 100 ppm increases cauliflower output and improves its vegetative characteristics. 100 ppm zinc foliar spray increases production by 150-200% in tomato. However, zinc treatment improves vegetative development and reproductive traits, directly increasing tomato output. Zinc applied at 0.5 to 0.75 % to chili increased overall yield significantly.it is also found that application of the zinc in bottle gourd, broccoli and okra found to be beneficial in increasing the overall production which will cause the benefit to the farmer. Concluding that the application of boron and zinc on vegetables found to be significantly beneficial in various ways as per discussed in the review.

ABSTRACT

Background: Hypertensive disorders and intrauterine growth restriction are common complications encountered during pregnancy. This study was conducted to observe the usefulness of systolic/ diastolic (S/D) ratio in umbilical artery as compared with non-stress test (NST) to predict perinatal outcome in pregnancies complicated with hypertensive disorders and intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR).Methods: It was a prospective observational which was conducted on patients undergoing antenatal visits at the department of obstetrics and gynaecology, Army hospital research and referral, New Delhi from May 2017 to April 2019. NST was started at 32 weeks twice weekly in all patients. All patients were subjected to umbilical artery Doppler velocimetry waveform on weekly basis or every third day in cases of nonreactive NST.Results: Out of 140 patients, 53 patients (37.9%) had PIH and 44 (31.4%) had IUGR. 43 cases (30.7%) had both PIH and IUGR. Among the 140 patients, 40 patients (28.6%) had non-reactive NST and 60 patients (42.9%) of the patients had abnormal doppler. Abnormal doppler and non-reactive NST were associated with APGAR score of less than 7 at 5 minutes in the newborn. Abnormal perinatal outcome was more in abnormal doppler than normal doppler and the finding was statistically significant (p<0.05).Conclusions: Overall sensitivity and diagnostic accuracy of Doppler is better as compared to that of NST in terms of detecting adverse perinatal outcomes.

ABSTRACT

Abstract The second generation of H1 antihistamines from the piperidine group are often used for treating allergic diseases due to their action on histaminic receptors, the primary mediator of allergy. Moreover, the antihistamines have anti-inflammatory action, mediated through platelet-activating factor blocking activity. A simple and rapid capillary zone electrophoresis method was developed and validated for the determination of loratadine (LOR) and rupatadine (RUP) in tablets. The analyses were carried out using a fused silica capillary of 50.2 cm (40 cm effective length), 75 µm i.d. The background electrolyte was composed of boric acid 35 mmol/L, pH 2.5. Voltage of 20 kV, hydrodynamic injection of 3447.3 Pa for 3s, temperature at 25 ºC, and UV detection at 205 nm were applied. Electrophoretic separation was achieved at 1.8 and 2.8 min for RUP and LOR, respectively. The method was linear for both drugs in a range of 50.0 to 400.0 µg/mL (r>0.99). The limits of detection and quantification were 46.37 and 140.52 µg/mL, for LOR and 29.60 and 89.69 µg/mL for RUP respectively. The precision was less than 5.0 % for both drugs. The average recovery was approximately 100 %. The proposed novel method can significantly contribute to the rapid detection of counterfeit products and in quality control of drug products containing antihistamines

ABSTRACT

Background: Traumatic avulsion injury poses severe risk as the overlying protective covering is lost and the raw tissue is exposed to the environment. Avulsion injuries involving the scalp are even more complicated to treat because of significant cosmetic concern involved. Aim of the study was to find a better solution than the existing method, we conducted a prospective study involving 13 patients with isolated traumatic scalp avulsion injury.Methods: This prospective study was conducted in Motilal Nehru Medical College and associated Swaroop Rani Nehru Hospital, Prayagraj,  after taking written and informed consents from the patients, between June 2017 and June 2019.These were divided into two groups (A and B) based on whether the underlying periosteum was intact or not.Results: Patients with intact periosteum (Group A) underwent primary thin thickness skin grafting within a few hours of their admission while the other group (Group B) was treated with a traditional conservative approach. We compared the results of both the groups and found that Group A patients not only had satisfactory graft uptake (≥85 TBSA) but also had significant decreased risk of infection, lesser hospital stay, overall decreased healthcare cost, better cosmoses and early return to routine activity.Conclusions: For the surgeon, this single step procedure is safe and technically easy. Thus this approach was found to be superior than the current traditional approach.

ABSTRACT

Panicle traits are the most important agronomic characters which directly relate to yield in rice. Panicle length (PL) being one of the major components of rice panicle structure is controlled by quantitative trait loci (QTLs). In our research, conducted at Research Farm of SKUAST-J, crosses of parental lines K343 and DHMAS were made for generating F2 mapping population, which were then transplanted into the field using augmented design-I. The F2 population was used for phenotypic evaluation, development of linkage map and identification of QTLs on the chromosomes by using SSR markers. A total of 450 SSR markers were used for screening both the parents of which 53 highly polymorphic markers were selected and used for genotyping of 233 genotypes of F2population. Linkage map was generated using MAPMAKER/EXP3.0 software, seven linkage groups were found distributed on 11 chromosomes of rice. QTLs were detected using QTL Cartographer (v2.5) software. Based on 1000 permutation tests, a logarithm of odds (LOD) threshold value 2.0 and 3.0 was set. Composite interval mapping was used to map QTLs in populations derived from bi-parental crosses. The phenotypic data, genotypic data and the genetic linkage map generated identified total three QTLs of which one was identified for PL qPL2, located at 85.01 cM position with 2.1 LOD value and in between the marker intervals RM324–RM208, this QTL explained the phenotype variation by 4.36%. The other two QTLs were identified for spikelet density (SD) qSD3.1 and qSD3.2, located at 28.91 and 39.51 cM, respectively, both with a flanking marker RM6832 on chromosome 3. The LOD value and phenotypic variation explained for qSD3.1 and qSD3.2 was 3.00 and 3.25; 9.70 and 12.34% respectively. The reported QTLs identified in the study suggested a less diversity in the parents used and also the rejection of not so useful markers from the used set of markers for PL and SD.

ABSTRACT

Morel-Lavallee lesion is a closed degloving injury characterized by post-traumatic separation of subcutaneous fat plane form underlying fascia, & thus created potential space being filled by fluid & debris of varying nature. Though originally described in the thigh, it has also been described in other anatomical sites including lumbar region. The lesion usually presents as compressible/fluctuant swelling at traumatic site. Most of patients present few days to few weeks after injury. However, patients with ignored slow growing painless lesions may present with long standing mass like lesions which may need open surgical intervention. Here, we present a case of long standing Morel-Lavallee lesion of lumbar region in a patient from remote village.

ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT Abamectin is a drug with antiparasitic properties used in several pharmaceutical formulations. The objective of this research was to develop and validate a high performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) method for quantification of the two abamectin homologs (H2B1a and H2B1b) in gel formulation. This HPLC method was validated using a LichroCart(r) 100 RP-18 (125 x 4 mm, 5 µm) column. The mobile phase contained of acetonitrile and water (95:5 v/v) with 1% acetic acid. The flow rate was 1.0 mL min-1 and UV detection was performed at 245 nm. Mobile phase solutions were prepared containing a nominal concentration 185.2 µg mL-1 H2B1a and 9.6 µg mL-1 H2B1b. The method displayed good linearity in the concentration range of 148.1 - 222.3 µg mL-1 and 7.7 - 11.5 µg mL-1, for H2B1a and H2B1b, respectively, with a correlation coefficient of (r)> 0.99 for both compounds, calculated by the least mean squares method. Detection limits (DLs) were 2.8 µg mL-1 and 1.2 µg mL-1 and quantitation limits (QLs) were 8.6 µg mL-1 and 3.8 µg mL-1, for H2B1a and H2B1b, respectively. The method is simple, economical and efficient for the quantitative determination of abamectin H2B1a and H2B1b homologs in pharmaceutical preparations.

ABSTRACT

Selection which is the basis of every breeding programme operates only on variation which is of genetic nature. A wide range of variability present in any crop always provides the better chances of selecting desired types. A field experiment was carried out at Vegetable Research Farm, Department of Horticulture, Institute of Agricultural Sciences, Banaras Hindu University during 2012 to evaluate the diverse genotypes of tomato. Analysis of variance indicated highly significant differences among the genotypes for all the characters. The highest GCV and PCV were observed with the character fruit yield per plant followed by number of seeds per fruit. Whereas, the lowest GCV and PCV were recorded by the character days to 50% fruiting followed by days to 50% flowering. The heritability estimates were high for all the characters except number of branches per plant which showed moderate heritability. The maximum heritability was observed for number of seeds per fruit and average fruit weight. High GCV and heritability coupled with high genetic advance was observed for fruit yield per plant followerd by number of seeds per fruit indicating that they are governed by additive genes and could be effectively improved through selection.

ABSTRACT

Tenoxicam, a piroxicam analogue, is an NSAID (Non-Steroid Antinflamatory Drug). It is used in the symptomatic management of musculoskeletal and joint disorders such as osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis, and also in the short-term management of soft-tissue injury. Its quantitative determination in pharmaceutical formulations is important to guarantee the desired therapeutic effects. The objective of this research was to develop, validate and compare spectrophotometric and chromatographic methods in the quantitative determination of tenoxicam in tablet preparations. In this work, tablets containing 20.0 mg of tenoxicam from different origins were analyzed. The spectrophotometric method was validated using 0.1 mol/L NaOH as solvent and a signal at 368 nm was taken. The HPLC method was validated using Synergi Hydro-RP® C18 column (250x4.6 mm, 4 µm). The mobile phase was constituted of methanol-water (61:39 v/v) with pH adjusted to 2.5 with formic acid, at a flow rate of 1.0 mL/min. UV detection was made at 375 nm. All analyses were performed with a column temperature of 25 ºC ± 1. The calibration curves were linear over a concentration range from 4.0-24.0 µg/mL with a correlation coefficient better than 0.9999. The detection limit (DL) and quantitation limit (QL) were 0.25 µg/mL and 0.90 µg/mL for UV method and 0.35 µg/mL and 1.20 µg/mL for HPLC method respectively. The intra-day and inter-day precision expressed as RSD were below 2 percent for both methods. The mean recovery of tenoxicam was found to be in the range of 98.5-101.25 percent for UV method and 99.01-101.93 percent for HPLC method. The UV and HPLC methods were found to be rapid, precise and accurate. Statistically there was no significant difference between proposed UV spectrophotometric and HPLC methods.


Tenoxicam, um análogo de piroxicam, é um AINE (Antiinflamatório Não-Esteróide). ë usado no tratamento sintomático de doenças musculoesqueléticas das juntas, tais como osteoartrite e artrite reumatóide, e, também, no tratamento de danos dos tecidos moles. Sua determinação quantitativa em formulações farmacêuticas é importante para garantir os efeitos terapêuticos desejados. O objetivo dessa pesquisa foi desenvolver, validar e comparar métodos espectrofotométrico e cromatográfico na determinação quantitativa de tenoxicam em comprimidos. Neste trabalho, comprimidos contendo 20,0 mg de tenoxicam de diferentes procedências foram analisados. O método espectrofotométrico foi validado utilizando-se 0,1 mol/L de NaOH como solvente e se obteve sinal a 368 nm. O método por CLAE foi validado utilizando-se coluna Synergi Hydri-RP® C18 (250x4,6 nm, 4µm). A fase móvel constitui-se de metanol-água (61:39 v/v), com pH ajustado para 2,5 com ácido fórmico, e velocidade de fluxo de 1,0 mL/minuto. A detecção por UV foi efetuada a 375 nm. Todas as análises foram realizadas com temperatura de coluna a 25 ºC ± 1. As curvas de calibração foram lineares na faixa de concentração de 4,0 a 24,0 µg/mL, comcoeficiente de correlação melhor que 0,9999. O limite de detecção (LD) e o limite de quantificação (LQ) foram 0,25 µg/mL e 0,90 µg/mL e 1,20 µg/mL por CLAE, respectivamente. A precisão intra e inter-dia, expressa como RSD, foi abaixo de 2 por cento para ambos os métodos. A média de recuperação do tenoxicam ficou na faixa de 98,5 a 101,25 por cento para o método de UV, e 99,01 a 101,93, para a CLAE. Os métodos de UV e de CLAE mostraram-se rápidos, precisos e exatos. Estatisticamente, não se observou diferença significativa entre os métodos espectrofotométricos (UV) e CLAE.

ABSTRACT

UV derivative spectrophotometry was used for quantitative determination of hydroquinone in creams. The aim of this work was to investigate optimum wavelength and order of derivative, and to validate the proposed spectrophotometric method. The results of standard curves were calculated and statistically analyzed through the least squares method in the interval from 10.0 to 26.0 µg/mL, in the first, second, third and fourth order derivatives. The quantitative determination was carried out by using the zero-crossing (Z-C) and zero-peak (Z-P) methods. The proposed method is simple, of low cost and provides reliable results in order to be used in quality control of creams containing hydroquinone as active substance.

ABSTRACT

A maioria dos agentes terapêuticos, freqüentemente prescritos, é formulada e comercializada sob a forma racêmica, embora, para alguns deles, já tenha sido demonstrado que os efeitos farmacológicos e/ou tóxicos estejam relacionados apenas a um dos enantiômeros. Além disso, é conhecido o fato de que os enantiômeros podem apresentar perfis farmacocinéticos e farmacodinâmicos diferentes. Neste trabalho foram selecionados compostos que fazem parte de um importante grupo de fármacos muito empregados na terapêutica. São fármacos freqüentemente prescritos em doenças cardiovasculares. As separações enantioméricas diretas do atenolol, betaxolol, metoprolol e nadolol foram obtidas utilizando-se fase estacionária quiral do tipo carbamato de celulose tris-3,5-dimetilfenil, Chiralcel OD®, (250 x 4.6 mm, 10 æm). Os enantiômeros do pindolol foram separados com fase estacionária quiral derivada de dinitrobenzoil (DNB), a-Burke 2®, (250 x 4.6 mm, 10 æm). Os fármacos foram cromatografados à temperatura ambiente, com volume de injeção de 20 æL. A detecção foi efetuada em 276 nm exceto para o pindolol, que foi detectado em 220 nm. Os métodos propostos neste trabalho empregando CLAE-FEQs oferecem vantagens sobre as técnicas clássicas de separação de enantiômeros e podem ser empregados na análise quantitativa dos enantiômeros em preparações farmacêuticas e amostras biológicas.


The majority of frequently prescribed therapeutic agents are formulated and commercialized in the racemic form, even though, for some of them, it has already been demonstrated that the pharmacological and/or toxicological effects are associated only with one of the enantiomers. Moreover, it is well known that these antipodes can present different pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic profiles. In this work we selected drugs that belong to an important group of pharmaceuticals, frequently prescribed in the treatment of cardiovascular disorders. The direct enantiomeric separations of atenolol, betaxolol, metoprolol and nadolol were obtained using the chiral stationary phase cellulose tris-3,5-dimethylphenyl-carbamate, Chiralcel OD® (250 x 4,6 mm, 10 æm). The enantiomers of pindolol were separated with the chiral stationary phase derived from dinitro-benzoyl (DNB) (S, S) alpha-Burke 2® (250x4.6 mm, 10 æm). The drugs were chromatographed at room temperature, with injection volumes of 20 æL. The detention was made at 276 nm except for pindolol, which was detected at 220 nm. The proposed methods in this work using HPLC-CSP offer advantages over contemporaneous techniques of enantiomeric separation, being rapid and efficient, and can be used in the simultaneous quantitative analysis of referred enantiomers in pharmaceutical preparations and biological samples.

ABSTRACT

Foram desenvolvidos e padronizados métodos por espectrofotometria no ultravioleta (UV) por derivada de primeira ordem (Método I) e cromatografia líquida de alta eficiência (CLAE) (Método II) para a determinação quantitativa de cetoconazol em formulações farmacêuticas sob a forma de emulsão obtida no comércio e formulada em laboratório. A espectrofotometria no UV por derivada de primeira ordem foi padronizada usando-se o método do zero pico a 257 nm, utilizando metanol como solvente. A cromatografia líquida foi realizada empregando-se uma coluna LiChrospher® 100 RP-18 (5 µm). A fase móvel utilizada foi a mistura de trietilamina em metanol (1:500) e solução de acetato de amônio em água (1:200) na proporção de 75:25 v/v, com vazão de 1 mL/min e detecção no UV de 225 nm. O tempo de retenção do cetoconazol foi de 3,9 min e do terconazol de 5,9 min, este último utilizado com padrão interno. As curvas analíticas mostraram linearidade dentro das concentrações de 5,0 a 30,0 µg/mL para o Método I e 20,0 a 80,0 µg/mL para o Método II, com coeficientes de correlação linear de 0,9997 e 0,9981, respectivamente.O desvio padrão relativo (DPR) foi de 0,56% e 0,41% para a amostra simulada e comercial, respectivamente, empregando-se o Método I. Para o Método II, os valores foram de 2,13% e 1,25%, respectivamente. A porcentagem de recuperação foi de 100,1% para o Método I e 100,4% para o Método II. Os excipientes não interferiram nas análises. Os resultados mostraram que os dois métodos podem ser usados para a determinação rápida de cetoconazol em formulações de emulsões com precisão, exatidão e especificidade.

Nos "peelings" químicos utilizam-se formulações esfoliantes, empregadas na terapêutica de queratoses actínicas, rugas, discromias pigmentares, acne vulgar e rosácea. Na presente pesquisa, foram empregadas como amostras, a solução de Jessner (SJ) composta por resorcinol (RS) 14 por cento e ácido láctico (AL) 14 por cento em solução alcoólica e géis de AS a 20 por cento e RS a 30 por cento. As técnicas utilizadas foram a espectrofotometria derivada no UV de primeira e segunda ordens em etanol absoluto para o AS e RS, respectivamente na SJ, e a espectrofotometria derivada no UV de primeira ordem em ácido sulfúrico 0,1 N para o AS e RS nos géis. Para o AS na SJ, o coeficiente de correlação (r) foi de 0,9999, a precisão expressa pela média dos desvios padrão relativos (DPR) de 0,68 por cento e a exatidão expressa pela recuperação média de 100,5 por cento...

ABSTRACT

A maioria dos agentes terapêuticos, freqüentemente prescritos, são formulados e comercializados sob a forma racêmica, embora para alguns deles, já tenha sido demonstrado que os efeitos farmacológicos e/ou tóxicos estejam relacionados apenas a um dos enantiômeros. Além disso, é conhecido o fato de que os enantiômeros podem apresentar perfis farmacocinéticos e farmacodinâmicos diferentes. Neste trabalho foram selecionados fármacos que fazem parte de dois grupos importantes no uso clínico. São fármacos freqüentemente prescritos, como os BETA-bloqueadores (atenolol, metoprolol, pindolol, betaxolol e nadolol) e os antiinflamatórios não-esteróides (ibuprofeno e flurbiprofeno)...
