This document discusses amperometric titration, which is a quantitative analysis technique where the equivalence point of a titration is determined by measuring the electric current produced by the titration reaction. It involves using a working electrode to apply an electrolytic potential to a solution containing an analyte and a conductive buffer. As a titrant is added that reacts with the analyte, the concentration and resulting current are measured. A plot of current vs titrant volume produces a straight line, with the equivalence point indicated by a change in slope when excess titrant is reduced at the electrode. Amperometric titrations offer selectivity advantages over other techniques.

Lifting the Corporate Veil. Power Point Presentationseri bangash
"Lifting the Corporate Veil" is a legal concept that refers to the judicial act of disregarding the separate legal personality of a corporation or limited liability company (LLC). Normally, a corporation is considered a legal entity separate from its shareholders or members, meaning that the personal assets of shareholders or members are protected from the liabilities of the corporation. However, there are certain situations where courts may decide to "pierce" or "lift" the corporate veil, holding shareholders or members personally liable for the debts or actions of the corporation.
Here are some common scenarios in which courts might lift the corporate veil:
Fraud or Illegality: If shareholders or members use the corporate structure to perpetrate fraud, evade legal obligations, or engage in illegal activities, courts may disregard the corporate entity and hold those individuals personally liable.
Undercapitalization: If a corporation is formed with insufficient capital to conduct its intended business and meet its foreseeable liabilities, and this lack of capitalization results in harm to creditors or other parties, courts may lift the corporate veil to hold shareholders or members liable.
Failure to Observe Corporate Formalities: Corporations and LLCs are required to observe certain formalities, such as holding regular meetings, maintaining separate financial records, and avoiding commingling of personal and corporate assets. If these formalities are not observed and the corporate structure is used as a mere façade, courts may disregard the corporate entity.
Alter Ego: If there is such a unity of interest and ownership between the corporation and its shareholders or members that the separate personalities of the corporation and the individuals no longer exist, courts may treat the corporation as the alter ego of its owners and hold them personally liable.
Group Enterprises: In some cases, where multiple corporations are closely related or form part of a single economic unit, courts may pierce the corporate veil to achieve equity, particularly if one corporation's actions harm creditors or other stakeholders and the corporate structure is being used to shield culpable parties from liability.

2. In India there was no restriction to practice the
profession of pharmacy. One could practice this
profession as any other profession. Persons, having
no knowledge and having no education in
pharmacy or pharmaceutical chemistry or
pharmacology, were engaged in this profession.
Hundreds of cases were brought to the notice of
the Government wherein the compounding,
mixing, or dispensing of medicines was being done
by persons who were not adequately educated in
this line.

health of people by wrong compounding,
mixing or dispensing.

regulation of the profession and practice of
pharmacy. To achieve this goal the
Pharmacy Bill, 1947 was introduced in the
Legislature which was later referred to the
Select Committee. The recommendations of
the Selection Committee were incorporated
in the Bill.
4. As in most other countries, only persons who have
attained a minimum standard of professional
education should be permitted to practice the
Profession of Pharmacy. It is accordingly proposed

examinations for Pharmacists, and Provincial
Pharmacy Councils, which will be responsible for
the maintenance of provincial registers of
qualified pharmacists.
