THE MECHANISTIC APPROACH OF THE PROPYLENE GLYCOL AS A CO-SURFACTANT THROUGH “SIX MEMBER CYCLIC HYDROGEN BONDING SYSTEM” FOR THE STABLE AND FLEXIBLE MICROEMULSION DRUG CARRIER
The improvisation of any system has been a challenging task for the scientist in the field of drug delivery. In pursuit of the stable carrier system, here the microemulsion or other meta-state like liquid crystal phase with the specific mechanism, i.e., “six-member stable cyclic system” is highlighted and critically evaluated. The system with co-surfactant (propylene glycol) is examined and co...

INVESTIGATION OF ANALGESIC ACTIVITY OF AMARANTHUS SPINOSUS LINN. (LEAVES) FROM BANGLADESH IN SWISS ALBINO MICE
The current study was aimed to investigate the analgesic activity of the methanolic extract of Amaranthus spinosus leaf (Family: Amaranthaceae). The analgesic activity was assessed with this extract for their peripheral and central anti-nociceptive potentials using three standard test methods, for instance, acetic acid induced writhing, hot plate and tail immersion methods in Swiss albino mice, at...
