In this space age where the technology has very much advanced, herbal medicines still flourish and are finding exceptional acceptance in both the developing and the developed countries due to their natural origin and lesser side effects. Besides widespread use of botanicals as medicinal products in developing countries, such products are fast becoming a part of the integrative healthcare systems of the industrialized nations, known as complementary and alternative systems of medicine. A number of herbal traditions have come to dominate the practice of alternative medicine. These include the western herbal tradition based on Greek, Roman and medieval sources, the essentially Ayurvedic tradition of India and the Chinese herbal medicine. The traditional Chinese medicine continues as a distinct branch of modern medical practice .The traditional herbal remedies as alternative medicine plays a significant role in South Africa also, where it forms a part of the culture and beliefs of the indigenous population and also features significantly in primary health care. Botanicals or phytomedicines have always been a major component of traditional systems of healing in developing countries, which have also been an integral part of their history and culture. In the ancient Indian system of medicine, Ayurveda and Siddha are such examples [1].Item Overview of skin whitening agents(AIKTC, 2021-05) Baig, Mirza Salman; Shaikh, Mohd Umair Afaque Ahmed (16PH53); Dubey, Kavita Gangeshwar (17PH17); Ansari, Farzeen Abulhasan (17PH02); Shaikh, Noman (15PH45)Skin whitening agents and depigmentation are one of the ancient practices that have been developed day by day from its beginning. It is common in many cultures of the world. Earlier natural whitening agents were the only option for preparation. But nowadays, many artificial (man-made) agents are the mostly used skin whitening agents available in the market. However, these whitening agents may produce side effects after applying on the skin for a long time and some of the whitening agents are also banned in different regions of the world. Alternatively, arbutin, kojic acid, and nicotinamide are also used in the western regions. This article gives an overview of the mostly used skin whitening agents with their benefits and side effects with all the required information.

The extent of a solubility of substance in a specific solvent is measured as the saturation concentration , where adding more solute does not increase the concentration of solution. There are different factors which affects the solubility of drugs are temperature , particle size , solubility curves etc. Solubility of drug is the important parameter in achieving pharmacological activity. As efficacy of drug is depends on its solubility and bioavailability of drug. Poor solubility and dissolution create problems in manufacturing of various dosage forms. There are various techniques which enhances solubility of poorly soluble drug such as Solid Dispersion , Nanosuspensions . They improve solubility of drug and its efficacy. Solid dispersion is occurred by evaporating solvent. There are different surfactants which added to achieve stability of drugs and prevent recrystallization. Natural gums can be used as an excipient to improves the solubility .Item Role of moisturizers and people reference towards it(AIKTC, 2021-05) Lal, Maria; Khan, Farheen Salman (17PH08); Halde, Rafat Zubair (17PH13); Kazi, Aqsa Mohammed Husain (17PH18); Syed, Shahnawaz Abdul (18DPH07)The skin is the largest organ of the human body, which protects us from entry of microorganisms, regulate our body temperature. It serves as a barrier against physical and chemical attack. It also acts as a thermostat in maintaining body temperature, shields the body from invasion by micro-organisms, protects against UV rays and plays a role in regulation of blood pressure. There are thousands of diseases that we come across now-a-days among which, dry skin called xeroderma, acne, seborrhea are the most commonest for which the people are getting introduced to skin moisturizers; which are available in varieties in market with different brands and many ingredients. Therefore, skin moisturizer is used by many people to keep the skin hydrated and make it feel soft and smooth, maintain skin health and treat seborrhoea. With the increasing demand of skin moisturizer by people, we did a survey to examine people preference towards it, why they use moisturizer and what’s their expectations from it.Item Lemon juice; Efficient and eco-friendly natural catalyst for one pot multicomponent synthesis(AIKTC, 2021-05) Khan, Firoz; Shaikh, Zarrin Banu Mohammed Arif (17PH57); Khan, Hana Tabassum Abul Wafa (17PH21); Khan, Mushahidul Islam (16PH34); Shaikh, Mohd Zishan Nasir (17PH48)Citric acid present in lemon juice is used as natural acid catalyst for one pot synthesis of various heterocyclic compounds with formation of products in high yield.Among other fruit extract lemon juice is given top priority for one pot multicomponent synthesis due to feature such as non toxic inexpensive, easily available, biodegradable.The catalyst is many organic reaction reflectors the importance and High expectation in kofield of research.Citric acid plays an important role as biocatalyst in the synthesis of key intermediate for the pharmaceutical and chemical industry. A multicomponent reaction (MCR) is a convergent reaction in which three or more starting material react to form a single product , where essentially all or modt of the aton contribute to the newly formed product.In recent years multicomponent reaction had gain much importance in organic synthesis, since they produced the desired product in single operation without isolating the intermediate.The advantages of MCRs are one pot reactions consume very less amount of solvent or no solvent, superior atom economy, generally takes less time compared to divergent reaction,lower cost, simple procedure and environment friendly.
