The present study involves in the formulation and evaluation of Controlled release tablets of Betahistine HCl (16mg). The objective ofthe present study was to formulate Betahistine HCl Controlled release tablets by direct compression method by using HPMC K4M, Ethyl cellulose and Eudragit S-100.MCC was used as diluting agent, Magnesium Stearate was usedas a lubricant and Talc was used as a glident. This Controlled release the drug up to 12 hours in predeterminedrate. The formulated powder blend was evaluated for bulk density, tapped density, compressibility index and angle of repose.

A simple technique for hemi epiphysiodesis in children using mosaicplasty system

Guided growth is helpful in correcting angular misalignments in children. Temporary and permanent hemiepiphysiodesis is a surgical procedure that can correct angular misalignments and provide effective correction. 12.5year old male with bilateral knee valgus deformity was included in this case study. Permanent hemiepiphysiodesis was performed using the Mosiaplasty system.Permanent hemiepiphysiodesis using the Arthex OATS System with a modification of the green approach is a safe and effective method for correcting knee valgus in adolescents.

Molecular endocrine model mechanism of insect metamorphosis and jh acid as the key regulator

Metamorphosis comprise dramatic transformation in shape and function of organs, tissues and individual cells. According to the classical theory of the hormonal control of insect metamorphosis, ecdysteroids initiates a molt independent on the titer of JH. However a few observations earlier indicate that tissues must first acquire competence in the presence of JH acid alone is not sufficient for the metamorphic response to ecdysteroid.

Ai in agriculture

The importance of sustainable and efficient food production has driven the need for applying increasingly advanced approaches in farming and agriculture. To keep up with this need, farmers and future farmers need to be trained in the ways of precision agriculture. With the widespread use of artificial intelligence across all industries, it is not surprising to find AI at the heart of precision agriculture. While AI has brought a lot of promise, it has also brought a lot of dread, due to the lack of understanding about what it is and what it can do.

A new technique for neck lifting with barbed tensor thread

The barbed tensor thread has become a popular facial rejuvenation method in recent years, and many authors use it for cheek rejuvenation. However, detailed techniques and descriptions of the use of barbed sutures for neck rejuvenation are lacking. This method uses minimally invasive techniques to rejuvenate the neck through barbed threads. In this technique, barbed threads are placed on the back of the neck to lift and tighten the skin. The threads have small barbs that anchor themselves in tissue and provide firm fixation and lift.
