Free radicals are the main cause for the pathogenesis of disease. Considering present day’s lifestyle oxidant stress is more on everyone. So anti-oxidants are in much demand worldwide. Only Ayurveda is science of life which has provided a rational basis for such thoughts and active medicines. Arogyavardhini vati is a potent formulation explained in rasashastra for maintaining health. An attempt was made to establish scientific evidence for anti-oxidant property of Arogyvardhini vati. Oxidative stress was induced in albino rats with carbon tetra chloride in all the groups except control. In control group only oxidative stress was induced without drugs. In test group three different concentration of Arogyvardhini vati (10 mg / ml, 20 mg / ml and 50 mg / ml) was administered. In standard group vitamin-c was used. Lipid peroxidation, Glutathione, Catalase Amylase, superoxide dismutase levels were estimated for four days. In an antioxidant assay Arogyvardhini vati 10 mg / ml and 20 mg / ml showed the significant reduction of malondialdehyde concentration and significant improvement in Glutathione, superoxide dismutase, Catalase Amylase activity. Antioxidant activity of Arogyvardhini vati was comparable to that of standard. Arogyvardhini vati demonstrated significant anti-oxidant activity compared to standard and control. This scientific data has given further scope for study in a larger samples and clinical study
The spectrophotometric method for estimation of CefpodoximeProxetil employed first derivative amplitude UV spectrophotometric method for analysis using methanol as solvent for the drug. CefpodoximeProxetil has absorbance maxima at 235nm and obeys Beer’s law in concentration range 10-50µg/ml with good linearity i.e. r2 about 0.999. The recovery studies established accuracy of the proposed method; result validated according to ICH guideline. Results were found satisfactory and reproducible. The method was successfully for evaluation of CefpodoximeProxetil in tablet dosage form without interference of common excipients.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
