Chromatography with high performance consists basically of a column filled with packing material (stationary phase), a
pump that moves the mobile phase(s) through the column, and a detector that detects the molecule's retention time.
Gemigliptin, sold as Zemiglo, is an oral hypoglycemic agent (anti-diabetic drug) that is a member of the dipeptidyl peptidase-
4 (DPP-4) inhibitor class of medications. Thus, the goal of this work is to develop a novel analytical approach for
determining Gimagliptin concentrations using RPHPLC. As the mobile phase, a mixture of acetonitrile and water with
various compositions was utilised at a flow rate of 1,1.2ml/min. The stationary phase was a phenomenex C18 column.
Numerous parameters such as accuracy, precision, linearity, system suitability, and formulation assay were examined, and an
analytical method for qualitative and quantitative drug estimation was established

Colorectal cancer is the third highest pervasive rate of all cancer types worldwide and it is also one of the major causes of
mortality. Chemotherapy drugs are generally limited due to various complexities, as well as the development of resistance
and recurrence. Hence, scientific communities have given more significance to natural products as drugs derived from them
provide better treatment compared to synthetic product. Besides, the availability of compounds derived from natural sources,
especially the secondary metabolites derived from microorganism play important role in cancer treatment. In these Soil grampositive bacteria streptomyces colonosanans (CA-256286) secondary metabolites has been known an attractive compound
with the ability of anticancer activity in cancer cells. In the present study, the in-silico docking examination involved
exploration of protein, 3D Structural modelling and binding energy calculation. SMAD2 (PDB id: 1 KHX) Protein was used
in the molecular docking analysis of secondary metabolites such as 1,8 dihydroxy-2-ethyl-3-methyl anthraquinone,
anthracycline, elaiomycin, piericidin, streptokordin for chemotherapeutic activity. The compound anthracycline had the
highest binding energy scores with the target protein SMAD2 (PDB id: 1 KHX), according to molecular docking results. The
findings suggest it could be used to develop new anticancer drugs. The conclusion drawn from the study should be validated
by further evaluation in animals and humans

Mimosa pudica is a plant species under the family fabaceae which have been used as a folk medicine in curing assorted
ailments. The endeavor of this study was to quantify, isolate and characterize the therapeutically important bioactive
constituent ?-sitosterol present in n-hexane extract of whole plant of Mimosa pudica. The HPTLC scrutiny was done to
quantify the amount of ?-sitosterol in whole plant extract, which yields 2.901 mg/g. Further, isolation was carried out by
preparative TLC with reference standard. The compound was scrapped in accordance with the Rf value of standard. The
physical and chemical properties of isolated compound were compared with standard ?-sitosterol for identification. The UV
spectroscopy, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, 1H NMR and 13C NMR analysis was carried out for characterization
of isolated compound. The interpretation data obtained through spectral analysis shows the nature of carbon and hydrogen
atoms which confirms that the isolated compound was ?-sitosterol.

Kabasura Kudineer is the siddha formulation which is in the form of powder, capsule, tablet etc. These formulations consist
of 13 to 15 different plant extract which shows the suitable efficacy. It is used to treat fever and respiratory problem. Thus, it
has Anti-oxidant, Anti-inflammatory, Anti-pyretic property. During the previous outbreak of dengue, chikungunya and swine
flu in Tamil Nadu Kabasura kudineer were used to control the dreadful disease. The present pandemic has increased the
public attention towards the benefits of Kabasura kudineer in Tamil Nadu. It is used in COVID 19 as prophylactic and as a
treatment. There are various commercially available of Kabasura kudineer in market. To check its standards, here we conduct
different monograph analysis for some available marketed brands compare with the standard reference. The physicochemical
and phytochemical characterization of the samples was carried out in accordance with the standards laid down by Indian
Pharmacopoeia (IP) 2018. HPTLC profiling of key constituents including phenol, flavonoids, tannin, steroids and alkaloids
were also carried out in accordance with IP 2018 monographs. The chromatographic analysis showed the presence of all
major ingredients in both commercially available sample and the standard and all the physicochemical and phytochemical
properties were also found similar among preparations. Our findings may boost the global recognition of Kabasura kudineer
is used to increase the immune system

Any physiological or psychological demand causes the body to respond in a non-specific manner to stress. Stress-induced
neurochemical and behavioral deficits have been shown in preclinical studies. Haloperidol was used to induce acute
parkinsonian-like effects in rats in the present study, which examined the hypothesis that stress adaptation would reduce the
responsiveness of somatodendritic 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT)-1A receptors. After just a single immobilization stressful
events of 120 minutes, there have been negative effects on food consumption, overall growth, and motor performance;
however, subsequent immobilization stress exposure did not result in these stress-induced behavioural abnormalities (120
minutes per day for 6 days).This suggests that behavioral tolerance to similar stress occurs. Compared to their respective
control animals, animals exposed to repeat immobilization stress showed reversal of the haloperidol-induced motor deficits.
Dopamine system could be released from inhibitory effects of serotonin induced by stress by desensitizing somatodendritic 5-
HT-1A and 5-HT-2C receptors. Increasing 5-HT-1A receptor activity modulates dopaminergic neuron activity directly and
may reverse haloperidol-induced parkinsonian symptoms in repeated-immobilized rats with haloperidol
