The properties of a cell's microenvironment are one of the main driving forces in cellular fate processes and phenotype expression invivo. The ability to create controlled cell microenvironments invitro becomes increasingly important for studying or controlling phenotype expression in tissue engineering and drug discovery applications. This includes the capability to modify material surface pro...

The purpose of this research was to mask the intensely bitter taste of diclofenac sodium and to formulate an orally-disintegrating tablet (ODT)) of the taste-masked drug. The methods commonly employed for achieving effective taste masking include various physical and chemical methods that prevent the drug substance from interaction with the taste buds. In this present study we have used veegum(...

The problem of resistance by malaria causing parasites to drugs in current usage, or of malaria vectors to pesticides has prompted nations to refocus attention on implementing research on new drug development and new pesticides development. The world appears to be rediscovering the importance of traditional medicines and people are resorting to use traditional medicines in different names such ...
