In vitro and in vivo evaluation of gentamicin sulphate-loaded PLGA nanoparticle-based film for the treatment of surgical site infection.

The study focuses on the in vitro and in vivo evaluation of the developed gentamicin sulphate (GS)-loaded poly lactic-co-glycolic acid (PLGA) nanoparticle (PNP)-based pullulan film (PNP-F). Sterilization being an essential pre-requisite for the dosage form was carried out using ethylene oxide. Post-sterilization, PNP-F was evaluated for mechanical properties, percentage drug loading, antimicrobial effectiveness study, test for sterility and in vitro dissolution study using Strat-M® membrane.

Formulation development and in vitro evaluation of gentamicin sulfate-loaded PLGA nanoparticles based film for the treatment of surgical site infection by Box-Behnken design.

Objective: Gentamicin sulfate (GS)-loaded poly lactic-co-glycolic acid (PLGA) polymeric nanoparticles (PNPs) were developed and incorporated in film for the treatment of surgical site infection (SSI).

Method: PNPs were prepared by double emulsification solvent removal technique using ethyl acetate solution containing PLGA and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) as an emulsifier. The emulsion was re-emulsified using Gum Kondagogu (GKK).

Quality by Design Approach for Simultaneous Estimation of Doxycycline Hyclate and Curcumin by RP-HPLC Method.

A simple, rapid, reliable, robust and optimized reversed phase high performance liquid chromatographic method for simultaneous estimation of doxycycline hyclate and curcumin was successfully developed and validated as per International Conference on Harmonization guidelines. The objective was achieved in terms of well separated peaks within 10 min on a Waters Sunfire C8 column with dimensions of 250×4.6 mm, particle size 5.

Psycho-physiological training approach for amputee rehabilitation.

Electromyography (EMG) signals are very noisy and difficult to acquire. Conventional techniques involve amplification and filtering through analog circuits, which makes the system very unstable. The surface EMG signals lie in the frequency range of 6Hz to 600Hz, and the dominant range is between the ranges from 20Hz to 150Hz.
