Ø Various catalyst from M/M E:g lindlar catalyst,wilkinson catalyst
Ø General concepts from – M/M
Ø Glossary of M/M




Inorganic chemistry:


Ø Bahl and Tuli only –thermodynamic and nuclear pharmacy chapters are very important. Other chapters are also important.
Ø Chatwal – remember only common names of compounds and their use and water for injection limits.


Microbiology :


Ø Only Kokare (whole book) is enough. For microbiological tests see INAMDAR.
Ø Vaccines read from it and also ip.
Ø Something from Tortora (For Niper – we will say later).
Ø Diagnostic tests.


Biochemistry :


Ø Satyanarayan is enough:
Do chapters 1 to 7 and metabolism chapters. Do all important tables.
Ø Biochemical teats (from R.K. GOYAL - available in GUJARAT only others students should see SATYANARAYAN AND KALE BOOK)

Ø N – RAVISHANKAR,KASTURE,KEMP. (NIPER – PAVIA)
Ø UV,IR – RAVISHANKAR, KASTURE, CHATWAL/YR SHARMA.
Ø AAS/FLAME PHOTOMETRY/FLUORIMETRY – RAVISHANKAR,KASTURE.
Ø GRAVIMETRY/REDOX/ACID- BASE/POALRIMETRY/POLAROGRAPHY/
CONDUCTOMETRY/AMPEROMETRY /ETC– RAVISHANKAR KASTURE.
Ø CALCULATIONS - UNDERWOOD.
Ø DSC/DTA/TGA – MARTIN, REMINGTON,
Ø KARL-FISCHER/KJELDAHL/CAURIUS/DUMAS etc determination methods - bahl and bahl or any other book.
Ø Assays- KASTURE OR RAVISHANKAR.
Ø See analysis part from /REMINGTON also.
Ø Circular dichromism.
Ø Chromatography – RAVISHANKAR/KASTURE.


Jurispudence


Ø Gk jani/ kuchekar.
Ø Read important years.
Ø D and c act
Ø Schedules
Ø Form numbers
Ø Members
Ø Place of various institutes.


Niper only
Ø Biostatistics general concepts
Ø Management/accountancy/partnership: use Gujarat board 11 or 12 standard books like – accountancy, secretial practice etc or what is studied in NIPER.
Ø Noble prize winners recent.
Ø Pharma news recent
Ø General knowledge.
Ø Apptitude (Maths)
Ø Recent approved usfda druigs (do only approved in may/june/july –upto niper exam date)
Ø Banks full forms and when they established.


Ø Pharmaceutical full forms.
Ø Name and location of important institutes.
Ø Any other useful information which we say at last time.
Ø The things which are being studied in niper are also asked. Most of this we will include in postal /series until you read above things.
Ø DON’T READ FOR NIPER BEFORE GPAT.
ALL THE BEST...
