Studies on γ-Oryzanol Preparations in Granulated Dosage Form

Antioxidant Activity of γ-Oryzanol: A Complex Network of Interactions

γ-oryzanol (Orz), a steryl ferulate extracted from rice bran layer, exerts a wide spectrum of biological activities. In addition to its antioxidant activity, Orz is often associated with cholesterol-lowering, anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer and anti-diabetic effects. In recent years, the usefulness of Orz has been studied for the treatment of metabolic diseases, as it acts to ameliorate insulin ...

γ-Oryzanol Enhances Adipocyte Differentiation and Glucose Uptake

Recent studies show that brown rice improves glucose intolerance and potentially the risk of diabetes, although the underlying molecular mechanisms remain unclear. One of the phytochemicals found in high concentration in brown rice is γ-oryzanol (Orz), a group of ferulic acid esters of phytosterols and triterpene alcohols. Here, we found that Orz stimulated differentiation of 3T3-L1 preadipocyt...

Capsule Dosage Form

Capsules are used for filling different materials like Powders, Granules, Beads, Tablets, Capsules, Pastes etc.. Some of the disadvantages associated with conventional capsule: They are easily tampered with (although techniques exist for preventing this). They are subject to the effects of relative humidity and to microbial contamination. Some of the innovations are targeted to:  Overcome the ...

Determination of Darunavir in Pharmaceutical Dosage Form

An accurate and economical spectrophotometric method for the determination of Darunavir in pure and dosage forms has been described in the present work. Stocksolution of Darunavir was prepared by initially by dissolving 100 mg of Darunavir in 10 mL of methanol and made up to 100 mL with distilled water. The values obtained by the proposed and reference method for formulations were compared stat...
