Abstract: The present invention relates to a bioenhancing/bioavailability-facilitating composition comprising:

Abstract: The present invention relates to the use of extracts of Carum carvi as bioenhancers, either alone or in combination with piperine or Zinzeber officinale extract to improve the bioavailability of a wide variety of drugs.

Abstract: A versatile cavity actuator. The versatile cavity actuator includes a cavity having one or more polymer-based sidewalls. An energetic material is disposed therein. A heater is disposed on or within the cavity. In a specific embodiment, the cavity includes a thermally insulating base positioned beneath the heater, which is positioned near the bottom of the cavity. The polymer-based sidewalls are constructed from a photo-curable epoxy, which is disposed on a substrate via microelectromechanical processes. The sidewalls are angled or parabolic and are constructed via a low-temperature lithographic spin process compatible with post integrated circuit processing.

Abstract: The invention relates to the isolation of an extract and/ or its fraction from the plant Carum carvi, its standardization with its intended use as drug bioavailability and/or bioefficacy enhancer for the drugs belonging to therapeutic categories such as but not limited to antimicrobial, antifungal, anti-viral, antitubercular, antileprosy, antiinflammatory/anti-arthritic, cardiovascular, antihistaminics, respiratory distress relieving drugs, immunosuppressants, anti-ulcers, nutraceuticals in compositions to be administered orally/parenterally, topically, inhalations (including nebulizers), rectally, vaginally in human beings and/or veterinary conditions.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a bio enhancing composition containing extract and/or bioactive fraction/isolate from the plant Zingiber officinale in combinations combination with drugs, nutrients, nutraceuticals, micronutrients and herbal drugs/products and optionally containing piperine as a extract/active fraction obtained from piper nigrum, piper longum or its oleoresin as a bioavailability enhancer and its process for producing the extract or fractions from the plant source.
