Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a stable, reproducible and bioequivalent apixaban compositions, wherein the composition comprising apixaban having a D90 particle size of more than 100 microns, preferably between 300 and 1000 microns, and more preferably between 350 and 800 microns, and further comprising one or more pharmaceutically acceptable excipients. The present disclosure further provides a process for preparation of a pharmaceutical composition comprising apixaban by wet granulation.

Abstract: The present invention is related to an improved process for the preparation and purification of crystalline Vortioxetine hydrobromide of Formula-I. The process according to present invention is operationally simple and suitable for industrial application which will avoid hazardous chemicals and eliminate column chromatography to get ICH quality of pharmaceutically acceptable active pharmaceutical ingredient having snow white appearance.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an improved process for the synthesis of (R)-Lacosamide in which free base of O-methyl-N-benzyl-D-Serinamide is not isolated before acylation. The process avoids the use of column chromatography and chiral resolution for the preparation of different stages of Lacosamide.

Abstract: Derivatives of anacardic acid having antimicrobial properties and method for preparing said derivatives. The antimicrobial properties include bacteriostatic and bacteriocidal activity.

Abstract: A novel chimeric protein of rabies virus designed to express a chimeric G protein at a high level in transgenic plants. A gene was also designed and chemically synthesised to encode the chimeric G protein and expressed at high level in plant tissue. The gene was expressed in transgenic tobacco plants to examine its therapeutic efficacy against infection by rabies virus. The chimeric G protein was enriched in plant membranes. The BalbC mice were immunised with the plant leaf expressed G-protein. Plant derived chimeric G protein elicited higher immune response as compared to the commercial vaccine. The mice displayed protective immunity when they were challenged with live virus. Chimeric G protein expressed at high level in plant leaves was demonstrated to function as a commercially valuable subunit vaccine against rabies virus infection.
