The following are some of the salient features and conclusions made for the present study.
• Four racemic drugs namely Rosiglitazone, Pioglitazone, Zaltoprofen and Valganciclovir Hydrochloride for which there were no HPLC and LC-MS methods reported for the estimation of enantiomers in pharmaceutical formulations and their stability in different stress conditions were selected for
the present study after thorough literature survey.
• The chromatographic conditions like detection wavelength/mass range, nature and composition of mobile phase, nature of stationary phase, peak modifiers, flow rate etc were optimised for the best possible separation and
quantification of the analytes. Forced degradation studies on the selected racemic drugs using acid, alkaline, neutral, oxidative and photolytic degradations were performed.
• The developed HPLC and LC-MS methods were validated for their transferability to other laboratories, in terms of specificity, selectivity, accuracy, precision, linearity and range, detection and quantification limits, ruggedness, robustness and system suitability. The validation studies carried out revealed that the developed methods satisfy the ideal characteristics of the analytical methods.
• The direct and indirect chiral HPLC and LC-MS methods developed in the present study for the estimation were found to be simple, rapid, accurate, precise, specific, linear and rugged. They are thus suitable for the estimation of
enantiomers in raw materials and formulations. The newly developed analytical methods can be used in the following fields:
• Research institutions,
• Academic institutes,
• Quality control department in industries,
• Approved testing laboratories,
• Biopharmaceutics and bioequivalence studies and
• Clinical and pharmacokinetic studies after suitable modification

A NEW VALIDATED CHIRAL RP-HPLC METHOD FOR THE DETERMINATION OF STABILITY OF MEBEVERINE ENANTIOMERS IN THE PRESENCE OF ITS DEGRADATION PRODUCTS
Objective: An enantioselective reverse phase high performance liquid chromatographic method was developed and validated for the analysis of mebeverine enantiomers. This method was used to investigate the stability and degradation behaviour of mebeverine under different stress conditions recommended by International Conference on Harmonization (ICH).Methods: An Isocratic chiral RP-HPLC method for the resolution of mebeverine and its degradation products was successfully achieved on a Phenomenex® lux cellulose 1 column, using UV detector at wavelength of 219 nm, with a mobile phase consisting of 0.1% diethyl amine in methanol, 20 mM ammonium bicarbonate (pH: 4.6) adjusted with trifluroacetic acid, 0.1% diethyl amine in isopropyl alcohol (55: 15: 30 v/v/v), and a flow rate of 1.2 ml/min. The drug was subjected to alkaline, acidic, neutral, oxidative, and photolytic conditions in order to mimic stress conditions. The stressed samples were also analysed by this method.Results: The method developed provided the linear correlation (R2 =0.999) for the drug between a range of 56–84 µg/ml for (-) mebeverine and 52–78 µg/ml (+) mebeverine respectively. The limit of detection and limit of quantification of (-) mebeverine was found to be 0.30 µg/ml, 0.90 µg/ml and (+) mebeverine was found to be 0.32 µg/ml, 0.97 µg/ml respectively.Conclusion: The method developed was found to provides good sensitivity and excellent precision and reproducibility and can be applied in the quality control of drug products.Â

Trabecular Variant of Juvenile Aggressive Ossifying Fibroma of Anterior Mandible
Juvenile ossifying fibroma (JOF) is an expansile intra-osseous lesion of the jaw that emulate odontogenic lesions frequently seen in patients under 15 years of age. They are histologically characterized by the presence of fibrous stromal cells along with mineralized tissues. Clinically, these are characterized by early age of onset, histological patterns, high rate of recurrence and the aggressive local behavior. The differential diagnosis of JOF with other fibro-osseous lesions of the jaw should be made along with an essential microscopic examination and be largely based on the character of the calcified products of the tumor. The purpose of this article is to present a rare clinical case of the trabecular type of JOF and to describe its clinical, radiological and histological characteristics. The clinician should be aware of this type of lesion in order to be able to distinguish this it from other fibrous lesions if encountered in routine practice and for appropriate treatment to be carried out
Extranodal non-Hodgkin's lymphoma presenting as gingival mass
Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) commonly presents as non-tender, enlarged lymph nodes, accompanied by diffuse symptoms of fatigue and low-grade intermittent fever and it is derived predominantly from the cells of the B lymphocyte series. NHL cases occur extra-nodally and in 3% of these cases the initial presentation may be in the oral cavity. Though extra-nodal NHL of the oral cavity is a rare finding, patients with oral lesions of NHL commonly present at the dental clinic in the first instance. A careful clinical evaluation supported by histopathological and other laboratory investigations will help in identifying the disease at an early stage, resulting in better prognosis. Any delay in diagnosis has important implications on the morbidity and mortality of the condition. Due to the rarity of intraoral NHL, we present one such a case with a complaint of tumor-like mass on the gingiva of lower molar region. The lesion was clinically thought as pyogenic granuloma and later diagnosed as extra nodal NHL of the oral cavity
