RESUMO
In this paper,we reviewed the various advanced technologies and methods that could help patients for measuring adherence of patients.There exist intelligent technologies that are available for measuring medication adherence,including medication event monitoring system (MEMS(R)),smart blister packs,radio frequency identification(RFID) embedded smart drawers,and wisely aware RFID dosage (WARD) system.Utilization of these advanced technologies and systems have aided in enhancing the adherence to a greater extent.For example,MEMS(R) refers to the electronic cap that counts the number of bottles opened,but it can be employed only with bottles.Smart blisters are pharmaceutical packagings that possess the capability of monitoring when a pill or tablet is taken out of its packing.All those intelligent technologies can help in active monitoring of patients regarding adherence and capable of eradicating various medication errors due to which adherence is affected.
RESUMO
Objective:- Murraya koenigii commonly known as curry patta is used in the ancient medicine for curing different ailments. The aim of the present work is to estimate total phenolic content found in the leaves of Murraya koenigii. Method:- Total phenolic content of Murraya koenigii was assessed by Folin-Ciocalteu reagent by using gallic acid as calibration standard. Result:- The total phenolic content was measured by Folin-Ciocalteu was found to be 5.32. Conclusion:- From the findings it may be concluded that this drug may find use in diabetes and liver related problems.
RESUMO
In the present study, we have reported the synthesis of some novel heterocyclic derivatives comprising imidazole and 1,3,4-thiadiazole containing moiety. Imidazothiadiazoles are of interest because of their diverse biological activities and clinical applications. Reactions of biphenyl carboxylic acid with thiosemicarbazide in the presence of phosphorous oxychloride resulted in biphenyl containing 2-amino-1,3,4-thiadiazole which is then further subjected to condensation with α-bromoarylketone under reflux in dry ethanol. The structures of the newly synthesised compounds were characterized by various spectral techniques and screened for antibacterial activity against strains of Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Bacillus subtilis, and antifungal activity against Candida albicans, Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Aspergillus niger. The compounds exhibited moderate to good activity when compared with standards.
