Methods: Fast dissolving tablets are prepared by direct compression method using super disintegrants i.e. sodium starch glycolate, crospovidone, croscarmellose sodium. Aspartame as a sweetener and trusil mango flavor were used to increase palatability. Reduction in the dose of Amoxycillin trihydrate and Potassium clavulanate tablet was possible by developing fast dissolving tablet. Results: The powder blends were subjected to various pre-formulation evaluations such as, tapped density, bulk density, hausner's ratio, the angle of repose and compressibility index. The prepared Amoxycillin trihydrate and Potassium clavulanate fast dissolving tablets were evaluated for thickness, weight variation, friability, disintegration time, hardness, wetting time and in vitro drug release. All fast dissolving tablet formulations shown uniform weight, hardness and friability data indicates the good mechanical resistance of the fast dissolving tablet. Fast dissolving tablets were disintegrated between 25-50 second and in vitro disintegration time of the best fast disintegrating tablets was found to be 25 second. Conclusion: Amoxycillin trihydrate and Potassium clavulanate fast dissolving tablets were found to be of good quality fulfilling all the needs for fast dissolving tablets. The optimised (F-4) formulation had shown best disintegration time and released profile with a maximum in vitro drug release as compare to marketed preparation at all time intervals of in vitro drug release.

Thus, there is a need to accurately map actual crop evapotranspiration (ETa) to more efficiently manage and document irrigation. An alternative is the use of remote sensing (RS) platforms. Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS) can fly frequently and acquire very high spatial resolution images. Multispectral UASs (fixed-wing and multi-rotor) flew over irrigated corn fields, in northern Colorado, to evaluate the capabilities of the RS systems on irrigation management. Soil water content sensors were used in the evaluation. Using multispectral UAS platforms in irrigation management is advantageous in regards to having the capability to assess crop water use and stress frequently and at very high spatial resolutions. This study shows that inferring crop water use and soil water status with acceptable errors is possible with visible-near-infrared and thermal cameras. Furthermore, the required imagery processing and calibration is detailed.

Airborne thermal infrared (8-12 μm) images were obtained annually from 2007 to 2012 using a FLIR SC640 thermal infrared camera system. Thermal infrared image acquisitions occurred under clear-sky conditions after sunset to meet the objective of providing high-spatial resolution, georectified imagery for hydrothermal monitoring. Comparisons of corrected radiative temperature maps with measured ground and water kinetic temperatures at flight times provided an assessment of temperature accuracy. A repeatable, time-sequence of images for Hot Spring Basin (2007-2012) and Norris Geyser Basin (2008-2012) documented fracture-related changes in temperature and fluid flow for both hydrothermal systems, highlighting the utility of methods for synoptic monitoring of Yellowstone National Park's hydrothermal systems.

The preformulation studies were carried out in terms of tests for identification (physical appearance, melting point and IR spectra), solubility profile and quantitative estimation of drug. The absorption maxima (λ max ) of drug were determined by UV visible double beam spectrophotometer (Shimadzu-1800). Accurately weighed 10 mg of metronidazole dissolved in 10ml of phosphate buffer (pH 6.8) to prepare a stock solution of 1000 μg/ml concentration. Drug polymer interactions were studied by FTIR spectroscopy. The spectra were recorded for pure drug and drug loaded microspheres using FTIR. The solubility of metronidazole was tested in various solvents. A definite quantity (10mg) of drug was dissolved in 100ml of each investigated solvents at room temperature. Microspheres were prepared by emulsion cross linking method. Particle size was determined by using a Zetasizer nano...

Methods: A standardized qualitative assessment of fluctuations before hospital arrival was obtained in an observational study that enrolled patients with mild ischemic stroke symptoms (National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale [NIHSS] score of 0–5) present on arrival to hospital within 4.5 hours of onset, in a subset of 100 hospitals participating in the Get With The Guidelines–Stroke quality improvement program. The number of fluctuations, direction, and the overall improvement or worsening was recorded based on reports from the patient, family, or paramedics. Baseline NIHSS on arrival and at 72 hours (or discharge if before) and final diagnosis and stroke subtype were collected. Outcomes at 90 days included the modified Rankin Scale, Barthel Index, Stroke Impact Scale 16, and European Quality of Life. Prehospital fl...

The objective of this study is to describe multidimensional outcomes, identify predictors of worse outcomes, and explore the effect of thrombolysis in this population. Methods: This prospective observational study included patients with ischemic stroke or transient ischemic attack, a baseline National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score 0 to 5, presenting within 4.5 hours from symptom onset. The primary outcome was a 90-day modified Rankin Scale score of 0 to 1; secondary outcomes included good outcomes in the Barthel Index, Stroke Impact Scale-16, and European Quality of Life. Multivariable models were created to determine predictors of outcomes and the effect of alteplase. Results: A total of 1765 participants were included from 100 Get With The Guidelines-Stroke participating hospitals (age, 65±14; 42% women; final diagnosis of ischemic stro...

Airborne thermal infrared (8-12 μm) images were obtained annually from 2007 to 2012 using a FLIR SC640 thermal infrared camera system. Thermal infrared image acquisitions occurred under clear-sky conditions after sunset to meet the objective of providing high-spatial resolution, georectified imagery for hydrothermal monitoring. Comparisons of corrected radiative temperature maps with measured ground and water kinetic temperatures at flight times provided an assessment of temperature accuracy. A repeatable, time-sequence of images for Hot Spring Basin (2007-2012) and Norris Geyser Basin (2008-2012) documented fracture-related changes in temperature and fluid flow for both hydrothermal systems, highlighting the utility of methods for synoptic monitoring of Yellowstone National Park's hydrothermal systems.
