CHROMATOGRAPHY: BACKBONE OF DRUG ANALYSIS

-Dr.Rohit Dutt & Sonia

Chromatography is a versatile method of separating many different kinds of chemical

mixtures. In the early 1900s, a Russian botanist named Mikhail Tswett became interested in

the individual chemical compounds in plants. He noted that extracting ground-up plant

material extracts with different solvents produced different col-ored solutions. One of his

experiments involved pouring a plant extract through a glass tube packed with pow-dered

calcium carbonate. As the liquid passed through the solid powder, bands of color appeared;

these were the individual compounds, separated from each other by the interaction of the

solid (which remained fixed in the tube) and the liquid extract (which flowed through the

tube and out the other end). Tswett had in-vented chromatography, a word he derived from

the Greek words for color (chroma) and writing (graph). Since then, chromatography has

become a cornerstone of separation science, that branch of chemistry devoted to separating

compounds from mixtures. There are two main categories of chromatography: preparative

and analytical.

Analytical work (which may be used in an environmental lab to look for pollutants) uses

small sample sizes; the objective is to separate compounds in order to identify them.

Preparative work (which may be used in the phar-maceutical industry) uses large quantities

of samples and collects the output in bulk; the point of the chromatog-raphy here is to

remove impurities from a commercial product. Chromatography is essential part of drug/chemical analysis and there are a number of

reasons for this. Firstly, very sensitive methods of detection are available to all types of

chromatography and thus very small quantities of material can be separated, identified and

assayed. It follows that only a few microgram of sample (at the ex-treme, even less than a

nanogram) may be necessary to ensure the required accuracy. Secondly, chromatographic

separations are usually relatively fast and an analysis can be completed in a few minutes and

possibly in a few seconds. Another advantage of chromatography is its relative simplicity

and ease of operation compared with other instrumental techniques. Finally, if the

established procedure is well controlled and the apparatus well maintained, good accuracy

and precision can be achieved. However, if the established analytical protocol is not carefully

adhered to, there is evidence that analytical reproducibility between different laboratories can

vary and can sometimes be very poor.

Quantitative chromatographic analysis is used extensively in all areas of chemical analysis

but examples are too numerous to discuss individually. Due to the high sensitivities

available, the techniques are invaluable for the analysis of environmental samples (soil and

water contamination and atmospheric pollution), for forensic pur-poses (such as testing for

drug residues in blood and urine, for flammable materials in arson samples and traces of

poisons or toxic materials) and for clinical studies. The technique is extensively used by the

pharmaceutical industry for both research purposes and for quality control. Similarly, the

biochemical and biotechnology indus-tries widely use chromatographic techniques and in

many cases alternative methods are not available. More re-cently, applications involving

chiral separations and the resolution of biopolymers have become important, where the

individual solutes are very similar and demand the high resolving power available from

modern col-umns, the selectivity of unique chiral stationary phases and high detector

sensitivity. The technique is also used extensively in the agrochemical industry, not merely

for raw material analysis and quality control, but for soil analysis and water purity. More

than 90% of drug analysis involves one of the chromatographic techniques. We can say

“Chromatography is back-bone of drug analysis

HERBAL REMEDIES FOR “DIABETES MELLITUS”

-Prerna Sharma & Devansh

Diabetes is referred to as ‘Diabetes Mellitus’ in medical sciences. It falls in the category of

metabolic disease and is caused when a person suffers from the problem of high blood sugar

levels in his/her body. The main reason of diabetes is that either pancreas is not able to

produce enough amount of insulin to control the blood sugar levels, or the insulin produced

by the pancreas is not properly responded by the cells.

There can be 3 major types of diabetes mellitus:

Type 1 is a kind of diabetes mellitus when the body is unable to generate insulin and has to

be dependent on insulin, injected from outside. This type of diabetes occurs generally in

teenage or during the ages when a person is about to enter his 40s.

Type 2 is a kind of diabetes where insulin is produced in adequate quantity by the pancreas,

but that quantity is not absorbed properly by the cells of the body, resulting in high levels of

blood sugar level.

Type 3 is gestational type, which occurs in pregnant women without any previous diagnosis

of the disease.

Symptoms

1. Sudden rise in blood sugar levels

2. Increased urination

3. Increased thirst

4. Gradual loss in weight

5. Felling hungry most of the time

6. Skin related problems, such as itching, dry skin, etc.

7. Slow healing of wounds and abrasions

8. Body becomes susceptible to fungal and yeast infections

9. Fatigue and irritation

10. Blurred vision

Home Remedies

1. Jambul: Leaves and berries of jambul plant help to keep blood-sugar levels in control.

2. Fenugreek: Fenugreek is another helpful herb that aims at controlling diabetes

mellitus in your body.

3. Guavas: Guavas are rich in vitamin C, and at the same time, they are highly fibrous. One

can maintain a healthy glucose level by having a guava every day.

4. Mango Leaves: Dry mangos leaves and make a powder out of them and store it.

Consume this powder with water, twice daily, for effective results.

5. Cinnamon: Mix 4 teaspoons of cinnamon powder with water and boil it on low flame.

Consume this extract every day for controlling and maintaining healthy blood glucose

levels in your body.

6. Water: Water helps to mobilize sugar levels of the body and also maintains a healthy

glucose level inside the body.

NANOPARTICLES AN EMERGING DRUG DELIVERY SYSTEM”

-Rameshwar Dass & Paras Arora

Nanoparticles are particulate dispersions or solid particles having size between 10-100nm. The

drug is encapsulated, entrapped, dissolved or attached to a nanoparticle matrix. The ultrafine

particles are that, during the 1970-80s, when the fundamental studies with "ultrafine particles"

were underway in the USA (by Granqvist and Buhrman) and Japan, (within an ERATO Project).

They were called "nanoparticles". The major purpose in designing nanoparti-cles are to control

particle size, surface properties and release of pharmacologically active agents and to get the site-

specific action of the drug at the therapeutically optimal dose regimen. The nanoparticles also

carry a drug to the targeted site in the body. Nanoparticles of silver were acting as highly

antibacterial. A choice of approaches can be applied to prepare a number of different kinds of

nanoparticles.

Methods for preparation from dispersion of polymer: Dispersion of drug in preformed poly-

mers is a common technique used to prepare biodegradable nanoparticles. The major methods are

Solvent evaporation, Nano-precipitation, Emulsification/solvent diffusion, Salting out, Di-alysis,

Supercritical fluid technology (SCF)

Methods for preparation from polymerization of monomers: Emulsion, Mini emulsion, Mi-

cro emulsion, Interfacial polymerization, Controlled/Living radical polymerization(C/LRP),

Ionic gelation or coacervation of hydrophilic polymers.

However, other methods such as supercritical fluid technology and particle replication in non-

wetting templates

Characterization of Nanoparticles:

Nanoparticles are generally

characterized by their size, morphology

and surface charge, using such advanced

microscopic techniques as scanning

elec-tron microscopy (SEM),

transmission electron microscopy

(TEM) and atomic force microscopy

(AFM). The average particle diameter, their size distribution and charge affect the physical sta-

bility and the in vivo distribution of the nanoparticles. Electron microscopy techniques are very

useful in ascertaining the overall shape of polymeric nanoparticles, which may determine their

toxicity. The surface charge of the nanoparticles affects the physical stability and redispersibility

of the polymer dispersion as well as their in vivo performance.

Application: Physical modification drug can be easily manipulated by nanoparticles, Site-

specific targeting, Controlled release, the system can be used for various routes of administra-

tion including oral, nasal, parenteral, intra-ocular etc.

GRADUATE PHARMACY APTITUDE TEST (GPAT)

-Dr. Sanjeev Kumar & Upma Gulati It is a national level entrance exam conducted by All India Council for Technical Education

(AICTE) every year as per the directions of Ministry of Human Resource Development (MHRD),

Government of India. This test facilitates institutions to able Pharmacy graduates for admission

into the Master’s (M. Pharm) program. The three hour computer based online test which is

conducted in a single session. This accepted by all AICTE-Approved Institutions/University

Departments/Constituent Colleges/ Affiliated Colleges. A few scholarships and other financial

assistance in the field of Pharmacy are also given on the basis of the GPAT score.

Eligibility Criteria: 1. Applicant must be a citizen of India.

2. They must be Bachelor’s degree holders in Pharmacy (4 years after 10+2, including lateral

entry candidates).

3. Those that are in the final year of B. Pharmacy course are also eligible for appearing in GPAT exam.

Top Ten Tips for GPAT Preparations

1. Whenever you read any chapter write important points on the top of page of your copy/

register, make these points’ memory tip results.

2. The pharmacology and medicinal chemistry read simultaneously.

3. Make charts, flow diagram & labels and paste them on the wall room.

4. Make some pocket cards to use maximum time for the revision of topics.

5. Find some topics from which one question is always asked in previous year examina-tions. So

prepare these topics with extra effects

6. Revision is very important, make your schedule like this, you should revise previous learn

chapters.

7. Try to practice on more multiple choice questions to increase your attemptation for final

exam.

8. Give one day for one subject for revision of all topics (whatever note you prepared for that

particular subject).

9. Discussion on topics is more beneficial. Suppose you are there friends; all three read same

subjects for all the day then go for discussion.

10. Keep your self confidence, don’t depress yourself from the fear of exam be very cool.

QUOTES BY SCIENTISTS

-Priyanka Kriplani & Hitesh Malhotra

Most people say it is the intellect which makes great scientist. They are wrong, it is character.

Albert Einstein , The Nobel Prize in Physics 1921

To raise new questions, a new possibility, to regard old problems from a new angle, requires

creative imagination and marks real advance in science. Albert Einstein , The Nobel Prize in

Physics 1921

Science never solves a problem without creating ten more. George Bernard Shaw , The Nobel

Prize in Literature 1925

“Discovery consists of looking at the same thing as everyone else and thinking something

different.” Albert Szent-Györgyi , Physiology or Medicine in 1937.

“It was quite the most incredible event that has ever happened to me in my life. It was almost

as incredible as if you fired a 15-inch shell at a piece of tissue paper and it came back and hit you.

Nobel Prize in Chemistry he was awarded in 1908, Ernest Rutherford

Every great and deep difficulty bears in itself its own solution. It forces us to change our

thinking in order to find it. Niels Bohr, Nobel Prize in Physics 1922

Imagination is more important than knowledge. Albert Einstein , The Nobel Prize in Physics

1921

Be less curious about people and more curious about ideas. Marie Curie, The Nobel Prize in

Physics 1903

The task is not so much to see what no one has yet seen, but to think what nobody has yet

thought, about which everybody sees. Nobel prize in physics 1933, Erwin Schrodinger

Don’t doubt the creater, because it is inconceivable that accidents alone could be the controller

of this universe. Sir Issac Newton
