RESUMEN
Natural polymer like potato starch is a mixture of amylose and amylopectin, . Extraction of Potato starch was performed by rasping, centrifugation, refining and drying method. In our research method, we employed potato starch as a biodegradable polymer; It has a great impact on pharmaceutical applications due to its bioavailability, non toxic, high change density and biodegradability. In our research work, we have selected Potato starch polymer as a model of immunomodulatory effect of vaccine of tetanus antigen. According to WHO, Tetanus is a systemic infectious disease caused by genus Cl Tetanii. It has been estimated that the tetanus fever endemicity among large populations and global emergence of multidrug resistant strains to impose greater urgency on the evaluation of existing and new vaccines to prevent mortality of neonates and in pregnancy. Recently available recombinant vaccine was seems to be side effect and cost effective. The starch polymer in the form of microspheres was preferred in order to replace the alum to elicit sustained immune response because alum induces local granuloma and hypersensitivity reaction to some individual. We have employed microencapsulation technique by using 0.5% ml glutaraldehyde as a crosslinking agent. The particle size was analyzed as 40.23μm. Invitro studies was analyzed by SEM, stabilities studies Immunogenicity studies was carried out by incubating the sample, centrifuged and tested for an antigen and the Compatibility study was performed by Infrared Spectroscopy, the antigen integrity was studied by SDS PAGE and ELISA. Immunoglobulin titer values was found out ( IgG, IgA,IgM, IgE) to show the increase level of antibody response.
RESUMEN
Crohn’s disease and Ulcerative colitis were chronic inflammatory disorders of the bowel categorized as inflammatory bowel diseases. Trinitrobenzene sulfonic acid (TNBS)-induced colitis was one of the most common methods for studying inflammatory bowel disease in animal models. Several factors may, however, affect its reproducibility, rate of animal mortality, and macroscopic and histopathological outcomes.The current study was undertaken with the objective to validate the main contributing factors to this method and compare the effects of different reference drugs upon better amelioration of trinitrobenzenesulfonic acid (TNBS) induced colitis. With the above objectives, ulcerative colitis was induced by intrarectal administration of TNBS in male Wistar rats at a dose rate of 20 mg in 0.5 mL of ethanol per animal for all groups except the negative control group, which received 0.5 mL of normal saline. Different reference drugs like dexamethasone (1 mg/kg, intraperitoneally (i.p.) and 2 mg/kg, orally (p.o.)), hydrocortisone acetate (20 mg/kg, i.p.; 20 mg/kg, enema) and sulfasalazine 500mg/kg ,p.o.were administered daily once from Day 3 to 9 except the negative and positive controls which received normal saline at the rate of 10 mL/kg body weight. All the animals were sacrificed on Day 10; the colons were excised and the colon morphology and net weight of the colon segment were graded and measured, respectively. The intestinal damage had improved significantly in the experiment groups that received different reference drugs which is comparable with sulfasalazine treated group. The experimental observations, gross pathology of intestinal lesions and statistical analysis reveals no significant difference among the different reference drugs treated groups.
RESUMEN
β-galactosidases enzyme have been used in the dairy industry for the improvement of lactose intolerance. The aim of the present study was to isolate β-galactosidase enzyme produced by isolated lactobacillus from milk and cheese. Isolated lactobacilli were cultured on MRS agar. Lactobacilli were identified by Gram staining and standard bacteriological and biochemical methods. Their ability to hydrolyze 5-bromo-4-chloro-3-indolyl-β-Dgalactopyranoside (X-Gal) and O-nitrophenyl- β-Dgalactopyranoside (ONPG) was determined. β-galactosidase enzyme activity was also detected by Sodium Dodecyl Sulphate Gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) method. The colonies that produced blue green color on X-Gal plates were lactobacillus with β-galactosidase enzyme which had ONPG positive results. By adding Lactobacillus producing β-galactosidase enzyme as probiotic to dairy products, could help lactose intolerant infants.
RESUMEN
An accurate and precise developed LCMS method was validated for the determination of pregabalin in human plasma. Validation was carried out according to US FDA guidelines. Validation data showed were within the limits. No matrix effect was found in different sources of human plasma tested. Dilution integrity, Lower limit of quantitation were also within the limit. The Mean extraction recovery of pregabalin was satisfactory.

RESUMEN
Infertility affects about 15 per cent married couples half of which may be attributed to men with low sperm motility (asthenozoospermia), low sperm count (oligozoospermia) or abnormal sperm morphology (teratozoospermia). As mitochondria are the energy source for initiation, differentiation and function of the germ cells, mutation in mitochondrial genome can impair the formation of mature spermatozoa. Mutations in mitochondrial genome are identified in patients with fertility problems. However, mitochondria are also both the source and target of reactive oxygen species (ROS). ROS are normally generated at low levels by human spermatozoa in order to perform its physiological function. However, if the generation of these reactive free radicals overwhelm the antioxidant defense system, this can lead to oxidative stress, which is characterized by mitochondrial and nuclear genome damage. So both ROS and mtDNA mutations are considered to be the major aetiological factors in a variety of human diseases including male infertility. Identification of novel mutations in mtDNA of infertile patients with supraphysiological levels of ROS are considered to be important to gain better understanding of the aetiology of idiopathic infertility. Early detection and prompt antioxidant therapy can prevent ROS induced DNA damage. This has far reaching impact if such men opt for assisted reproductive technology (ART)/in vitro fertilization.
RESUMEN
The rate and efficiency of decolorization of dyes like Blue CA, Black B133, and Corazol Violet SR were tested to evaluate white rot fungal strains. Trametes hirsuta and Pleurotus florida showed the greatest extent of decolorization on nutrient salt media. Maximum decolorization of 200 mg/l of Blue 133 was obtained by 4 days old incubated Pleurotus florida followed by Trametes hirsuta after 6 days. An attempt was made to improve the decolorization activity of both organisms with different concentrations of glucose 1 and 2% [w/v]. The decolorization activity may be due to the laccase enzyme of white rot fungi. The production of this enzyme was estimated using solid state fermentation with rice bran as a substrate. It was found that P. florida exhibited 0.175 U/ml of laccase activity followed 0.126U/ml by T. hirsute, respectively. Decolourization was found to be more effective with P. florida in the presence of 2% [w/v] glucose. Crude extract containing the laccase enzyme was isolated and confirmed by SDS PAGE

The change in the neurosecretory cells with males with respect to seasons was investigated. The brain is provided with three types of neurosecretory cells namely A, B and C and thoracic ganglion with four types of neurosecretory cells A, B, C and D. They vary in number and neurosecretory activity according to seasons which may be responsible for the increase in the size and development of the reproductive and associated structures.
