A study has been made on the formulation and evaluation of Acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) suppositories using Goat fat (GF) and its binary blends with Palm Kernel oil and Liquid Paraffin. Cocoa butter was used as the standard reference suppository base. Rectal suppositories containing ASA (300 mg) in pre-calibrated mould were prepared by fusion method and evaluated for appearance, crushing strength, weight variation, melting point, liquefaction time, content uniformity and in-vitro release using standard procedures. Liquefaction or disintegration time (minutes) followed this order: ACB(4.40±0.84) AGF >AGL>ACB (p<0.05). Results obtained indicated that the bases used generally could be ranked in the order of GL > GP > GF > CB (p<0.05) in terms of favourable physicochemical properties investigated. The foregoing indicates that GL or GP has promising potential and could be a substitute suppository base in the formulation of ASA suppositories.

To develop two new spectrophotometric methods for the analysis of isoniazid in bulk form and tablets. The methods involved condensation of isoniazid with salicylaldehyde and diazo coupling with diazotized p-nitroaniline. Critical factors were optimised; evidence for new product formation, selection of analytical wavelengths, temperature and time and solvent for dilution. Validation was carried out according to ICH guidelines. The new methods were used for isoniazid tablets. Isoniazid formed an imine and azo adduct readily with the two reagents at 30 0C after 5 and 20 mins, and determined at 405 and 420 nm, respectively. Low LODs were obtained for the two methods and recoveries were generally above 98%. The methods were successfully adopted for the assay of isoniazid in tablets and there were no significant differences in the contents when compared with the official titrimetric method of analysis. The methods could find application as in-process method in pharmaceutical industries.

Macaranga hurifolia Beille (Euphorbiaceae) is used in Nigerian ethnobotany for treating several diseases. This work was designed to determine the phytochemical composition, as well as, investigate the anti-inflammatory and hypoglycaemic activities of Macaranga hurifolia extract (MHE). MHE was evaluated for its anti-inflammatory and antidiabetic potentials using the egg albumin inflammatory model and alloxan-induced diabetic rat model, respectively. MHE produced both dose-dependent and time-dependent inhibition of oedema development with its maximum effect (69.6%) produced at the dose of 300 mg/kg. The acute in vivo antidiabetic study revealed that MHE produced significant hypoglycaemic effects at doses of 200 mg/kg (54% reduction) and 400 mg/kg (59% reduction), comparable to glibenclamide (5 mg/kg) which caused a 42% decrease, while all the treatment groups produced at least 25% reduction in blood glucose level for the chronic study. This study established, for the first time, the anti-inflammatory and antidiabetic potentials of Macaranga hurifolia.

A series of novel 2-azetidinons entitled N, N’-bis[3-chloro-2-oxo-4-(substituted pyridine-2-yl)-azetidin-1-yl] pyrazine-2,3-dicarboxamide and N,N’-bis[3,3-dichloro-2-oxo-4-(substitutedpyridine-2-yl)-azetidin-1-yl] pyrazine-2,3-dicarboxamide have been synthesized from the relating newly Schiff bases by [2+2] cycloaddition reaction in good yields. Starting with pyrazine-2,3-dicarboxylic acid which was converted to the corresponding diester in absolute ethanol and glacial acetic acid as a catalyst. After that, the hydazinolysis of resulted diester with hydrazine hydrate afforded dicarbohydrazide which further treated with different substituted pyridine-2-carbaldehyde to give new Schiff bases. These new Schiff bases were reacted with chloroacetochloride and (or) dichloroacetochloride in presence of trimethylamine in DMF solvent under reflux and stirring to yield new derivatives of titled compounds. The structural assignments were estimated from their spectroscopic analysis such as IR,1H NMR, 13C NMR, and C, H, N elemental analysis. The newly prepared 2-azetidinones have been screened for their antimicrobial activity and some of them revealed excellent antibacterial and antifungal activities.
