Nanoparticles are being developed to deliver vaccines through the lungs and nose without the need for syringes – thus reducing the risk of infection and needle-stick injury.

Enzymes are currently involved in industrial processes with annual turnovers adding many billions of pounds.

Several enzymes, especially those used in starch processing, high-fructose syrup manufacture, textile resizing and detergent formulation, are now traded as commodity products on the world's markets.

Enzymes as drugs have two important features that distinguish them from all other types of drugs.

Firstly, enzymes often bind and act on their targets with great affinity and specificity.

Second, enzymes are catalytic and convert multiple target molecules to the desired products.

After having seen some of the major Medical Tourism destinations of the world let us now know about some of the developing medical tourism destination in our very own Asia.

As everyone are aware of Alzheimer's disease, recent news is that early use of NSAID's might prevent this disease. Its still under clinical investigation, the mice being the experimental animals.

Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is an irreversible, progressive brain disease that slowly destroys memory and thinking skills, and eventually even the ability to carry out the simplest tasks.

I am herewith presenting some of my views on recent scenario of Pharmacy education in our country.

In my last blog entry on CDSCO, i had mentioned that i shall be giving you a brief information on roles played by Central and State governments enforcing provisions of various aspects from drug development to marketing. Here is a list of functions of central and state governments:

Central Government
1. Laying down standards of drugs, cosmetics, diagnostics and devices.

ULURU (Manufacturing comapny) are developing a novel biomaterial that utilises hydrogel nanoparticle aggregates to form a material of varying strength and function. The aggregate is then implanted into the body to form a permanent, porous hydrogel implant

Nanotechnology:
The aim of nanoparticles in drug delivery is to improve drug uptake and specificity while also reducing side-effects. These aims can be achieved through drug encapsulation, reduced immune response and improved drug targeting and delivery.

PLANT PROTIEN SWEETENERS

Wide variety of sweetening agents or sweeteners used in pharmacy are basically carbohydrates like sucrose, glucose, honey etc or glycosides such as glycyrrhizins, sterioside or even synthetic i.e saccharine.

However the sweetening agents other than above chemical nature and still from natural sourse are really very rare.
