    Floating Kollidon SR (KSR) matrix tablets containing famotidine was developed to increase gastric residence time and bioavailability after oral administration. Total six formulations were formulated by direct compression technique using varying concentrations of Kollidon SR (floating agent). The formulations were evaluated for their drug content‚ hardness‚ friability‚ buoyancy lag time‚ total floating time‚ swelling index and in­vitro drug release. All formulations possessed good floating properties

    However‚ in most cases‚ this deficit cannot be attributed to elementary motor or sensory systems. Alan Sunderland et al‚ states that the presence of apraxia is largely attributed to the left hemisphere of the brain‚ specifically the left inferior parietal lobe. Lesions in the brain do not discriminate and can occur equally to genders‚ at any age. Natural brain lesions occur as a result of stroke‚ tumors‚ head injury‚ or hemorrhaging. Brain damage can be acquired in a number of ways‚ including neurosurgery

    The temporal lobe is a region of the cerebral cortex that is located beneath the lateral fissure on both cerebral hemispheres of the mammalian brain. The temporal lobes are involved in the retention of visual memories‚ processing sensory input‚ comprehending language‚ storing new memories‚ emotion‚ and deriving meaning. The frontal lobe is an area in the brain of mammals‚ located at the front of each cerebral hemisphere and positioned anterior to (in front of) the parietal lobe and superior and

    also divided into lobes – the frontal‚ parietal‚ occipital‚ and temporal lobes. The frontal lobe is responsible for voluntary muscle movement‚ emotional reactions and expressions. In the parietal lobe on the other hand‚ positioned posterior to the frontal lobe‚ its responsible for the integrating sensory information from the various parts of the body. In other words‚ it helps us process touch and taste. Next is the occipital lobe‚ located posterior to the temporal and parietal lobes. This is the brain’s

    Frontal Lobe The outer layer of our forebrain consists of the cerebral cortex. The cerebral cortex is so significant since it controls our ability to learn and store complex and abstract information. Also‚ it is our control and information processing center. The cerebral cortex consists of many interconnected neurons that are quite useful. The cerebral cortex covers the frontal lobe. This lobe is so important because it controls our organization‚ planning‚ and creative thinking. The frontal lobe is also

    different lobes. The temporal‚ frontal‚ parietal‚ and occipital lobes control a variety of cognitive functions (Santrock‚ 2013). The brain controls simple functions such as fine and gross motor skills‚ vision‚ and memory. For instance the frontal lobes are involved in the voluntary movement‚ thinking‚ personality‚ and intentionality or purpose. The occipital lobes are responsible for vision. The temporal lobes are responsible for hearing‚ language processing and memory. The parietal lobes plays role

    brain such as the temporal and frontal lobes of the brain. The cerebral cortex is “a large‚ deeply wrinkled sheet of neurons‚ or nerve cells‚ on the surface of the brain’s two hemispheres”. These are defined as the right and left hemispheres and make up the largest volume in the brain. The cerebral cortex controls all sensation‚ thought‚ comprehension‚ higher cognition‚ ideas‚ language‚ memory and emotion (Pinel‚ 2011). The hemispheres consist of four lobes‚ with each performing a specific function
