Abstract

Anaemia is a very common disease which is due to iron deficiency and is highly prevalent among population of developing countries. The present study is based upon the survey to find out the prevalent of anaemia in population. Further, the data is statistically analyzed and conclusion is derived. In this study hemoglobin (Hb) level in blood was determined along with the sociodemographic factor of more than 200 subjects residing in rural region. The subject population was comprised of 40% male while 60% female. The data revealed that the maximum number of male and female having the Hb level in between 9-12.5g/dl and 7.5 - 11.5g/dl respectively. The data showed that more than 65% of female are anaemic and having an Hb level in between 7.5 - 11.5g/dl. The data also revealed that more than 90% of these anaemic female are in between the age group of 20 to 30 yrs which highlighted a significant fact that maximum number of female were anaemic during their peak reproductive age. Moreover, in case of male 85% of total male subject having the Hb levels between 9 - 13g/dl were observed below the age group 20yrs. On the other hand 65% of males in the age group of 30- 40 yrs have Hb level above 13g/dl. During this study only 3% of total female subject were found Hb level below 7g/dl while in male only 1% subject were found the Hb level below 9g/dl. Present study concluded that there is an urgent need to improve the nutritional status and public awareness about this disease to improve the health status in rural area of the country.

Abstract

From a last decade a lot of work is going on the indanol ring. Scientists have developed large number of new compounds related to this moiety and screened them for their different pharmacological activities to get a molecule which have good pharmacological activity and lesser side effects. This review article reflects various pharmacological activities of indanol derivatives. This indanol has shown its importance as antimicrobial, anti-fungal, antiviral, antitubercular, anti-inflammatory, anti-HIV, CNS depressant, Analgesic, Hypnotics and Antipsychotic activities.

Abstract

Cubosomes are the biocompatible novel approach for the drug delivery system. The controlled release application of these nanoparticles is of a great significance in cosmeceutical and pharmaceutical fields. Low cost of the raw materials, versalality and the potential for controlled release through functionalization make them an attractive vehicle for several in vivo drug delivery routes. Precursor forms of cubosomes are among the modification possible to overcome its difficulty in loading of drugs.

Keywords

Cubosomes, Precursors, Nanoparticles, Drug Carrier, Drug Delivery.
