Objective: In the present study, the effect of sildenafil on the pharmacokinetics of metformin was studied in experimental rats, and we also postulated the molecular mechanism by performing molecular docking studies.

Materials And Methods: Analysis of metformin and sildenafil (SIL) from rat plasma was done by high performance liquid chromatography. Optimum chromatographic separation and quantification of MET, SIL and Cetirizine was achieved on Phenomenex EVO C18 column with triethyl amine (0.

Diabetes mellitus is a disorder characterised metabolic dysfunction that results in elevated glucose level in the bloodstream. Diabetes is of two types, type1 and type 2 diabetes. Obesity is considered as one of the major reasons intended for incidence of diabetes hence it turns out to be essential to study about the adipose tissue which is responsible for fat storage in body.

Myocardial Infarction (MI) occurs due to a blockage in the coronary artery resulting in ischemia and necrosis of cardiomyocytes in the left ventricular heart muscle. The dying cardiac tissue is replaced with fibrous scar tissue, causing a decrease in myocardial contractility and thus affecting the functional capacity of the myocardium. Treatments, such as stent placements, cardiac bypasses, or transplants are beneficial but with many limitations, and may decrease the overall life expectancy due to related complications.

A simple, rapid, precise and accurate stability indicating high-performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) method was developed for simultaneous quantification of Ciprofloxacin (CIP) and Loteprednol (LOT) along with their forced degradation products using central composite design (CCD) approach. CCD was prepared with three independent variables in a gradient HPLC method. In gradient program (GP) the ratio of phosphate buffer in the mobile phase was 70%, 75%, 80%, 85% and 90%, the pH of phosphate buffer was 2.

Social media have become a very viable medium for communication, collaboration, exchange of information, knowledge, and ideas. However, due to anonymity preservation, the incidents of hate speech and cyberbullying have been diversified across the globe. This intimidating problem has recently sought the attention of researchers and scholars worldwide and studies have been undertaken to formulate solution strategies for automatic detection of cyberaggression and hate speech, varying from machine learning models with vast features to more complex deep neural network models and different SN platforms.

A novel, simple and mass spectrometry (MS) compatible high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method is reported for the simultaneous estimation of ilaprazole (ILA) and glimepiride (GLM) in rat plasma. The bio-analytical procedure involves extraction of ILA, GLM and internal standard (IS) from rat plasma with a solid-phase extraction (SPE) process. The chromatographic analysis was performed on Waters-600 system using an isocratic mobile phase comprising methanol:water (80:20 % v/v) with pH of water modified to three using formic acid at a flow rate of 1.

Sildenafil citrate (SIL) is used in the treatment of erectile dysfunction and other chronic disorders. For the pharmacokinetic investigation of SIL we developed a simple and sensitive method for the estimation of SIL in rat plasma by reverse phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC). The drug samples were extracted by liquid-liquid extraction with 300 μl of acetonitrile and 5 ml of diethyl ether.

A simple and sensitive method was developed for simultaneous estimation of Glimepiride (GLIM) and Sildenafil citrate (SIL) in rat Plasma by reverse phase high performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC). The drug samples were extracted by liquid-liquid extraction with 300 µl of acetonitrile and 5 ml of diethyl ether. Chromatographic separation was achieved on C18 column using methanol: water (85:15 v/v) as mobile phase at a flow rate of 1 ml/min and UV detection at 230 nm.
