Abstract: The embodiments of present invention provide method for imparting tone-controlled colors into colorless crystals such as gemstones or decorative objects by coating a atomically mixed thin film comprising of a color causing reagent and a toner material onto the surface of colorless gemstones or transparent crystals and subjecting them to a heat treatment to produce colors of desired shades in the crystals. The method employed is radiation-free, eco-friendly and avoid the use of any hazardous material. The method highlights that controlling the amount of toner material could easily control the shade of color induced by the colorant material. The coating of atomically mixed single film onto the surface of crystals results in reduction of diffusion time significantly at a reasonable temperature, to impart colors to crystals such as gemstones and colorless decorative objects.

Abstract: Generally described, embodiments of the present invention provide the ability to assign primary keys and foreign keys to lists of any number of sites that are maintained by a database hosting service. More specifically, a scalable table, like the master table described below, may continue to be used without specifying primary keys or foreign keys within the table by using two additional tables in which the keys are specified for each list of each site. Integrity may be maintained by confirming that all changes to either a primary key or foreign key are appropriate before applying the changes to the master table.

Abstract: A combination kit for the treatment of malaria caused by Plasmodium vivax (P. vivax) having individual doses of an anti-malarial agent, 3-[1-[[4-[(6-methoxy-8-quinolinyl)amino]pentyl]amino]ethylidene]-dihydro-2(3H)-furanone (I) in the form of capsules; individual doses of the anti-malarial agent, chloroquine in the form of tablets; and instruction material for the administration of the two anti-malarial drugs. The combination kit is particularly suited for a 6 days treatment regimen where the treatment is rendered by five tablets containing 500 mg of chloroquine phosphate (equivalent to 300 mg base), three to be taken on day one and one each on days two and three; and five capsules containing 25 mg of 3-[1-[[4-[(6-methoxy-8-quinolinyl)amino]pentyl]amino]ethylidene]-dihydro-2(3H)-furanone (I), one each to be taken on days two to six.

Abstract: The present invention provides an improved process for the preparation of Guggulsterones which comprises epoxidising 16-dihydropegnenolone acetate (16 DPA) by reacting 16DPA with hydrogen peroxide reagent adduct in the presence of a co-base in a polar solvent to obtain 3 ? hydroxy-16 ?, 17-oxido-5 pregnen-20-one, converting the 3 ? hydroxy-16?, 17-oxido-5-pregnen-20-one by reacting with hydrazine in the presence of a strong base at refluxing temperature followed by oxidation to obtain desired guggulsterones viz. to 5, 17-(20)-cis and trans pregnadiene-3 ?, 16-diol of the formula Ia and Ib.
