ABSTRACT: In the present study, the wound-healing activity of some substituted hydroxytriazenes was investigated. Excision, resutured incision and dead space wound models were used to evaluate the wound-healing activity of substituted hydroxytriazenes. In excision wound model, treatment was continued till the complete healing of the wound, in incision and dead space wound models the treatment was continued for 10 days. For topical application, 5% w/w ointment of hydroxytriazenes was prepared in 2% sodium alginate and for oral administration hydroxytriazenes dissolved in DMSO, at dose 5 mg/kg were used. In excision and incision wound models, the control group of animals was left untreated and in dead space wound models the animals were treated with DMSO (1ml/kg). The healing of the wound was assessed by the rate of wound contraction, period of epithelialisation, skin breaking strength, granulation strength, dry granulation tissue weight and hydroxyproline estimation. Except the p...

ABSTRACT: Biologically important Schiff bases L1 8-nitro-2-{[(5'-methyl-3'-isoxazolyl) imino] methyl} naphtha [NMIIMN], L2 N-[5'-methyl-3'-isoxazolyl]-N-[(E)-1-(-2 Thiophene)] methylidine] amine [MITMA] have been synthesized. Metal Chelates of NMIIMN and MITMA with Co (II), Ni (II), Cu (II) and Zn (II) metals have been synthesized and the structures of these chelates have been elucidated by elemental analysis, 1H _NMR, Mass, IR electronic spectral data and magnetic moments. From these studies it is found that the ligands NMIIMN and MITMA act as bidentate ligands coordinating through oxygen and nitrogen donor atoms in the case of NMIIMN, sulpher and nitrogen atoms in the case of MITMA. The chelates of Co (II), Ni (II) and Zn (II) appear to be octahedral and Cu (II) appears to be tetragonal geometry. Antimicrobial activity of the ligands and their metal complexes against bacteria (Bacillus, Pseudomonas) and fungus (R. Solani, A. Niger) has been carried out. It is f...

A simple sensitive spectrophotometric method in UV region has been developed for the determination of Ceftazidime in bulk dosage form. The solution of ceftazidime in 0.1N HCl shows maximum absorbance at 261nm, beer’s law was obeyed in the concentration range of 2-10 µg ml-1. The absorbance was found to increase linearly with increasing concentration of ceftazidime, which is corroborated by the calculated correlation coefficient value of 0.9981. The slope and intercept of the equation of the regression line are 0.0465 and 0.0007 respectively. The analysis were validated statistically and its recovery studies result of percentage shows that the method was not affected by the presence of excepients which proves suitability of the developed method for the routine estimation of ceftazidime bulk and solid dosage form. This method were extended to pharmaceutical formulations and there no interference from excepients and diluents. The proposed methods are economical and sensitive for the est...
