In pharmaceutical preparations, ethyl acetate is primarily used as a solvent, although it has also been used as a flavoring agent. As a solvent, it is included in topical solutions and gels, and in edible printing inks used for tablets. 

Included in the FDA Inactive Ingredients Guide (oral tablets and sustained-action tablets topical and transdermal preparations). Included in nonparenteral medicines licensed in the UK (tablets, topical solutions, and gels). Ethyl acetate is also accepted for use in food applications in a number of countries including the UK. Included in the Canadian List of Acceptable Non-medicinal Ingredients. 

Monobasic aluminum acetate is dispensed as a 7% aqueous solution for the topical treatment of certain dermatological conditions, where a combination of detergent, antiseptic, astringent, and heat-dispersant effects are needed (12). The solution, diluted with 20—40 parts water, is appHed topically to the skin and mucous membranes as a wet dressing (13). Burrow s solution, prepared from aluminum subacetate solution by the addition of a specific amount of acetic acid, is also used as a topical wet dressing. Standards of purity and concentration have been estabHshed for both pharmaceutical aluminum acetate solutions (13). Each 100 mL of aluminum subacetate solution yields 2.30—2.60 g of aluminum oxide and 5.43—6.13 g of acetic acid upon hydrolysis. For the Burow s solution, each 100 mL yields 1.20—1.45 g of aluminum oxide and 4.25—5.12 g of acetic acid. Both solutions may be stabilized to hydrolysis by the addition of boric acid in amounts not to exceed 0.9% and 0.6% for the subacetate and Burow s solutions, respectively (13). 

Iodine monochloride is used as an analytical reagent to determine iodine values of ods and fats. It is dissolved in glacial acetic acid (Wijs solution) for the analysis. ICl is used in organic synthesis. It also is used as a topical antiseptic. 

Superficial infections of the extemalauditory canal Topical Carefully remove all cerumen and debris to allow acetic acid to contact infected surfaces directly. Instill 4-6 drops of otic solution in the affected ear q2-3h. Lie on side with the affected ear uppermost instill drops and remain on side for 5 min. 

Sodium sulfacetamide ophthalmic solution or ointment is effective in the treatment of bacterial conjunctivitis and as adjunctive therapy for trachoma. Another sulfonamide, mafenide acetate, is used topically but can be absorbed from burn sites. The drug and its primary metabolite inhibit carbonic anhydrase and can cause metabolic acidosis, a side effect that limits its usefulness. Silver sulfadiazine is a much less toxic topical sulfonamide and is preferred to mafenide for prevention of infection of burn wounds. 

The most recent paper on this topic has been published by Lu and Huang (213). The method consists of an online enrichment of the aromatic amines on a carboxymethyl-bonded silica precolumn and an HPLC-UV (at 254 nm) analysis. The mobile phase, ACN-acetate buffer (pH 4.66) (40 60, v/v), was used to desorb the analytes and for the subsequent separation. The method was applied to the determination of several compounds (4-aminoazobenzene (4-AAB), benzidine (Bz), 3,3 -methylbenzidine (DMBz), 4-aminobiphenyl (4-ABP), 3,3 -dichlorobenzi-dine (DCBz), and 2-naphthylamine (2-NA) together with some substituted naphthalens and phenols) in aqueous solution of four food dyes Direct Blue 6, Amaranth, Sunset Yellow FCF, and D C Orange No. 4. Detection limits ranged between 0.6 and 1.6 fig/g. Most part of the methods developed for this kind of determination are reported in Table 3.

Polyoxyl 35 castor oil is mainly used as an emulsifing and solubilizing agent, and is particularly suitable for the production of aqueous liquid preparations containing volatile oils, fat-soluble vitamins, and other hydrophobic substances. Cremophor EL emulsifies or solubilizes the fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E, and K in aqueous solutions for oral and topical administration. In 1 mL of a 25% v/v aqueous polyoxyl 35 castor oil (Cremophor EL) solution it is possible to incorporate approximately 10 mg of vitamin A palmitate approximately 10 mg of vitamin D approximately 120 mg of vitamin E acetate or approximately 120 mg of vitamin Kj. 

Sodium acetate is used as a buffering agent in various intramuscular, intravenous, topical, ophthalmic, nasal, oral, otic, and subcutaneous formulations. It may be used to reduce the bitterness of oral pharmaceuticals. It can be used to enhance the antimicrobial properties of formulations it has been shown to inhibit the growth of S. aureus and E. coli, but not C. albicans in protein hydrolysate solutions. It is widely used in the food industry as a preservative. Sodium acetate has also been used therapeutically for the treatment of metabolic acidosis in premature infants, and in hemodialysis solutions. ... 

Zinc acetate has been used as an excipient in a variety of pharmaceutical formulations including topical gels, lotions, and solutions, and subcutaneous injections. It has also been investigated for use in an oral controlled-release formulation for water-soluble drugs in combination with sodium alginate and xanthan gum. ... 

The anti-inflammatory potencies of betamethasone and dexamethasone exceed that of prednisolone. However, because of the facility with which prednisolone acetate crosses the cornea, a 1% solution is generally regarded as the drug of choice for the topical treatment of anterior uveitis in the horse, although comparable clinical results can be achieved using 0.1% dexamethasone in alcohol preparations. The frequency of application of topical glucocorticoids is largely determined by the severity and the nature of the clinical problem... 

Organic Mercury. Case report studies suggest that dermal exposure to methylmercury or phenylmercury in humans can cause rashes and blisters on the skin (Hunter et al. 1940 Morris 1960). A 33-year-old male worker exposed to methylmercury nitrate dust for 2 years developed bums and blisters on his forearm (Hunter et al. 1940). These effects healed within 9 days. Sensitivity to phenylmercuric salts is shown by individuals who developed itchy, pruritic, papular eruptions or rashes on their skin following acute dermal exposure (Morris 1960). A 54-year-old woman with a family history of atopy was found to display erythema (at 30 minutes postexposure) and urticaria (at 60 minutes) when treated topically with a 0.01% solution of phenylmercuric acetate (Torresani et al. 1993). This positive reaction was associated with aggravation of facial edema and an attack of bronchospasm. The woman, who was a farmer, was believed to have been previously exposed to phenylmercuric acetate during contact with pesticides and herbicides used on farm crops. 

It is to this topic of solute preferential sorption in reverse osmosis that this paper is dedicated. Specifically, this discussion will involve a description of solute preferential sorption, an overview of the literature in the area, and finally a presentation of some recent work on the removal of aromatic hydrocarbons from water. The significance of this work is at least two-fold. From a practical point of view the classes of solutes which demonstrate preferential attraction to the membrane material tend to be organic compounds and the removal and recovery of these solutes from water is environmentally and economically important. From a theoretical point of view an understanding of the phenomena involved is essential to the achievement of a fundamental description of the RO process. Although this paper deals solely with aqueous solutions and cellulose acetate membranes, it Is important to recognize that the concepts discussed can be extended to Include other membrane materials and non-aqueous systems.

At the first sign of contact dermatitis, clean the skin area immediately. Patch testing may be needed to determine the causative factor. Apply wet dressings containing Burow s solution (aluminum acetate), lotions such as calamine that contain zinc oxide, calcium hydroxide solution, and glycerin. Calamine lotion may contain the antihistamine diphenhydramine and is used primarily for plant irritations. If itching persists, antipraritics (topical or systemic diphenhydramine [Benadryl]) may be used. Topical antipraritics should not be applied to open wounds or near the eyes or genital area.
