The objective of the study was to assess whether few marketed brands of Salbutamol sulphate syrup IP was within the limits as specified in Indian Pharmacopoeia with respect to selected physical parameters. A study was carried out using two different brands coded as brand A and B for Salbutamol sulphate syrup IP. In this study, selected brands were well known brands and a comparative study was planned. Salbutamol is a short acting β2 adrenergic receptor agonist used commonly for the relief of bronchospasm in conditions such as asthma and Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). In the present study, three different batches each of brand A and brand B were procured randomly from the medical shop. The tests that were performed included the visual inspection or appearance of product, pH measurement, extractable volume, primary labeling quality and checking of text matter on primary label. From the study, it was found that both the brands were comparable with respect to various physical parameters; however brand B was chosen as best since the results for all three batches were consistent and uniform. Brand A was not user friendly since there was difficulty in opening cap as it is uncomfortable for a patient suffering from asthma. These types of problems sometimes receive market complaints as well.Keywords

AIDS and crime rates are often treated in isolation from each other. This study, indicates whether HIV prevalence could influence crime rates, employs an interdisciplinary model of crime to fit the complex socio-demographic context, it is evidently proved that HIV prevalence is positively correlated with some types of monetary/property-related crimes. This study also assesses some of the behavioral mechanisms that could drive this positive relationship between AIDS and crime. It is assumed that those infected with HIV are also more likely to engage in other risky behaviors such as illegal drug use, trafficking and other illegal activities because their reduced life expectancy leads them to discount the future. Evidence shows that HIV/AIDS crowding-out police/law enforcement expenditure in favor of other government agency spending for the study period.Keywords

Drug has always been the cause of disease. Lots of psychological and physical consequences as well social taboos are associated with the person who ever use drugs. The study sheds light on the effect of drug on HIV infection which is highly correlated with injecting the drugs for any intoxication. The injecting route of drug is one of the major routes of HIV transmission. Moreover, the study also reveals the dynamic pattern of drug uses among the young generations. The drug which was previously used in western countries is now consumed frequently in India. Many youngsters are wasting their lives by getting caught in swamp of drugs as well being infected with HIV virus.Keywords

This study aimed to determine self-esteem's (SE) impact on the sexual and reproductive health (SRH) of female adolescents aged 14 to 21 years in different schools and Anganwadi centers of Sewapuri block of Varanasi district (U.P). The study followed a long-term pre and post-intervention research design. The research instruments were the Hindi version of the Coopersmith Self-esteem Inventory and a self-prepared regionally sensitive SRH survey. The pre-intervention survey was conducted for 510 participants. The average score on the SE scale and SRH was 54.07 (out of 96) and 79.17 (out of 105), respectively. Regression analysis showed that SE scores significantly predicted the participants' SRH scores. Age showed an inverse relationship with SE and SRH. SE and SRH were higher for unmarried and enrolled participants. A practice-based intervention consisting of 10 self-esteem modules was delivered to 70 female adolescents in phase I. The surveys were taken immediately after the intervention. The SRH score increased significantly, while the increase in the SE score was not significant. Self-esteem as an attitude takes time and specific practices to develop. Academic performance might have also impacted adolescents' self-esteem since the surveys were taken immediately after exams. Therefore, the surveys were conducted again after two months for 36 participants ( ~ 50% of the intervention group). The results showed a significant increase in the SE and SRH scores of the 36 participants. Psychological care and behaviour change communication should be provided through self-esteem-enhancing programs for adolescents to enhance their sexual and reproductive health.Keywords

Characterization plays a significant role in plant science. It enables easy discrimination between varieties and helps in defining a variety. In this study, seven released and/in release pipeline soybean varieties of Himachal Pradesh were morphologically characterised using DUS descriptors. Each variety was tagged to the set of morphological characteristics. Further, the characterization revealed that 11 characters out of 21 namely seed shape, seed colour, seed cotyledon colour, seed hilum colour, seed size, plant growth habit, leaf shape, leaf colour, flower colour, pod pubescence colour and pod colour were very informative in providing a sound identification of seven soybean varieties of Himachal Pradesh. The information generated could be a ready reckoner for all the actors involved in undertaking activities related to maintenance breeding during seed multiplication and for genetic purity assessment using the Grow Out Test.Keywords
