Any dissolution test method involves immersing the dosage form in a suitable dissolution medium, which is kept in motion at a constant speed and requires determining the rate at which the drug substance is released from the dosage form and […]
PEPTIC ULER: Peptic ulcer are open sores that develop on the inner lining of the stomach and the upper portion of small intestine. It occurs in that part of the g.i.t which is exposed to gastric acid secretions. Types of […]
COUGH: It is physiologically useful protective reflex that clears the respiratory tract of the accumulated mucus and foreign substances. It occurs due to stimulation of mechano/chemo receptors in throat, respiratory, passage or stretch receptors in the lung Types of cough: […]
COPD: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, a group of lung disease that blocks airflow and make it difficult to breathe. Types of COPD: There are two main types of COPD. Chronic bronchitis: Which involves a long term cough with mucus. Emphysema: […]
SOLUBILIZATION: It can be defined as the preparation of a thermodynamically stable isotropic solution of a substance normally insoluble or very slightly soluble in a given solvent by the addition of component or by any suitable methods. SOLUBILITY: The maximum […]
Many attempts have been made to develop a mathematical expression that relates the amount of the adsorbate per unit weight of adsorbent to a function of the solute concentration remaining in the solution at a fixed temperature. The most frequently […]
ADSORPTION PHENOMENA: Adsorption is the process in which materials of one phase (adsorbate) accumulate or concentrate at the interfacial surface of the other phase (adsorbent). It is a spontaneous phenomenon driven by a reduction of the surface free energy. Adsorption […]
Spreading Coefficient (S): In general, spreading of a liquid occurs when the work of adhesion between two liquids exceeds the work of cohesion between the molecules of each liquid. Work of adhesion (Wa)- Consider a liquid drop with surface tension […]
