Using cinnamon () and turmeric ( L) powders as an antibiotic growth promoter substitutions in broiler chicken's diets.

In the current study supplementations of cinnamon () powder (CNP) and turmeric () powder (TP) as an antibiotic growth promoter substitutions on growth performance, intestinal microbiota and hematological profile of broiler chickens have been investigated. A total of 240, one day old as-hatched broiler chickens (ROSS 308) were randomly assigned into five treatments with four replicates per treatment and 10 chickens per replicate. Treatment groups were C: control (fed basal diet); CNP1: 0.

ASSESSMENT OF GUAR AND XANTHAN GUM BASED FLOATING DRUG DELIVERY SYSTEM CONTAINING MEFENAMIC ACID.

We aimed to assess guar and xantban gum based floating drug delivery system containing mefenamic acid. Floating tablets of nefenamic acid were formulated with different concentrations of guar and xanthan gum via wet granulation method. The flow properties of granules that is: bulk density, tapped density, flow rate, Carr index, Hausner's ratio, compressibility index and angle of repose as well as physical parameters of the compressed tablets including: hardness, friability, thickness and swelling indices were determined and found to be good.
