Understanding Giant cell tumor (GCT) of bone has been described as the most challenging benign bone tumors. The majority of these tumors, classically, are involved in the epiphysis of long bones. Although this disorder is benign, GCTs show a tendency of bone destruction, local recurrence and, occasionally, pulmonary metastasis. But axillary lymohnode metastasis is very very rare. Herein, we present an extremely rare case of axillary mets even after below elbow amputation in a case of recurrent giant cell tumor in a 45 yers male residing at Kolkat,.West Bengal.

To perform the comparative study between Curcuma longa Nanosuspension and suspension. Poor bioavailability is one of the leading causes of compound failure in preclinical and clinical development as reported in literatures Gao (2012). Bioavailability of a compound depends on its solubility or dissolution rate Vyas et al. (2013). Dissolution may be the rate determining step for bioavailability and medicinal value, therefore, efforts to increase dissolution rate for water insoluble drug is often needed Sun et al. (2012).

This study was conducted to assess the effect of season (cold, hot and main rainy seasons) on the performances in Bovans Brown (BB) and Koekoek (Kk) chickens. The result revealed that effect of breed on feed intake per bird per day (gm) (FIg/b/d) was significant (P<0.05) and more pronounced in BB, the effect on average daily gain (gm) (ADG), feed conversion ratio (FCR) and mortality was also significant (P<0.05) but more pronounced in the Kk breed.

In view of the present trend of commercialization in the preparation and marketing of Ayurvedic medicine and to ensure the interests of the profession and public, it has become our prime duty to establish the standard pharmaceutical parameter of Sneha Kalpana including manufacturing. Process as well as to find out the physicochemical changes occurring during the process.
