The second method for mixture analysis is the use of specialized software together with spectral databases. We have developed a mixture analysis program AMIX for one- and multidimensional spectra. The most important present applications are the field of combinatorial chemistry and toxicity screening of medical preparations in the pharmaceutical industry. An important medical application is screening of newborn infants for inborn metabolic errors. [Pg.418]

Through trade with many regions, the Arabians learned and extended medical knowledge. Their major contribution is perhaps the knowledge of medical preparations and distillation methods, although the techniques were probably derived from the practices of alchemists. Avicenna, around ad 900-1000, recorded a vast encyclopedia of medical description and treatment. Another noted physician was Rhazes, who accurately described measles and smallpox. [Pg.394]

Sulfur itself is used for many purposes. By a process called vulcanization it turns sticky, gummy raw rubber into clastic rubber usable for automobile tires and other rubber products. Sulfur also goes into such things as matches and gunpowder and medical preparations. [Pg.50]

It is common knowledge [41,120,121] that hydroxylating enzymatic systems, cytochrome P-450 and analogs, in particular, have the prospect of a broad field of practical application. For example, they can be used in the synthesis of various medical preparations, detoxication of living organisms and development of highly selective process techniques for the production of epoxides, alcohols and ketones. [Pg.216]

There is a large class of processes where the final product is an emulsion. It includes homogenized milk, shampoos, polishing compounds, and some types of medical preparations. A key factor is the chemistry of the product, to ensure that the emulsion remains stable over a desired product shelf-life, when produced properly by the fluid mixer. There are numerous correlations in the literature on drop size in a two-phase liquid-liquid system, relative to fluid properties and mixer variables. However, most... [Pg.295]

Physicians called attention to the effective antimicrobial action of organotin compounds in the middle of the last century. In 1958, Stalinon , a medical preparation consisting of diethyldiiodostannane and isolinolenic acid esters1072, was produced in France for the treatment of staphylococcus infections. Hexabutyldistannoxane in combination with formaldehyde1046 was used as a remedy against Staphylococcus aureus. [Pg.66]

As a rule, most medical preparations begin to act only after reaching the stomach. Taking into account this circumstance, it is impossible to give a justified answer to the urgent question, Which form of preparations, chemically grafted or adsorbed on the silica surface, shows activity ... [Pg.316]

Camphor (C10H160) Found in essential oils of ho leaf, lavandin, spike lavender, rosemary and sage. An important compound used in many applications including medical preparations, but it is classified as toxic. [Pg.68]

In all of the testimony, only one person raised any substantial objection to the Anslinger proposal. Dr. William Woodward, a legislative counsel for the American Medical Association, argued that Cannabis in medical preparations had not been abused and that the new provisions would cause hardship for doctors. He was quickly hooted down. House hearings concluded with no significant changes in the proposed bill, which then sailed through... [Pg.260]

Many excipients used by the pharmaceutical industry in the last 15 years in sugar-free medical preparations probably come under the category of essentially new excipients. Pressure for their introduction has been encouraged by the definite relationship between the dietary consumption of sucrose and the incidence of dental caries. " "" These materials include intense sweeteners such as saccharin and cyclamate plus bulk sweeteners such as the polyols sorbitol, xylitol, and lactitol. These materials are all either approved for food use or have pharmacopoeia monographs in existence or in draft. Fiterature reviews show number of... [Pg.2775]

Article 9 of the Medical Preparations Regulations (Statutory Instrument No. 43 of 1996) describes the conditions under which the Board may refuse an application for a PA. They occur when the applicant fails to submit information, documents, samples or other materials, or when the Board is satisfied, following examination. [Pg.219]

The antibacterial and antifungal properties of organomercurials have resulted in their long-term use as topical disinfectants (thimerosal and merbro-min) and preservatives in medical preparations (thimerosal) and grain products (both methyl and ethyl mercurials). Phenylmercury has been used in the past in paints, and dialkyl mercurials are still used in some industrial processes and in the calibration of certain analytical laboratory equipment. A major issue in recent years has been the presence of mercury in some vaccines, for example, in the vaccine preservative thimerosal - this has led to suspension of some vaccination programs and the development of preservative-free (i.e., mercury-free) vaccines as replacements. [Pg.1621]

Such samples in respect of a medical preparation concerned shall not exceed six in number per year. [Pg.114]

Changes in elderly patients abilities to taste various substances do not necessarily affect the ease or difficulty of administration of medications, but these changes do have an effect on the patients acceptance of a product. For instance, although it may be easier for patients to swallow liquid medications, they may find the taste or smell of the product so objectionable that they will refuse to take any medication prepared in this manner. Indeed, even some solid dosage forms carry with them objectionable tastes or odors that result in limitation of patient acceptance. Although there have been few studies assessing elderly... [Pg.248]

Consumption of animals or poultiy fed fish meal might increase the exposure to MeHg, but data are not available. The use of organic Hg compounds as preservatives in vaccines and medical preparations is also a source of exposure and is of particular importance in young children who might be more sensitive to those mercurials than adults. As many as 219 such products are in use (FDA 1999). Thimerosal (TM) (sodium ethylmercuiithiosalicylate) and phenylmercuric acetate (PMA) are the most frequently used compounds, at concentrations of 0.01% and 0.0002%, respectively. The FDA estimates that 75-80 kg of Hg compounds are used annually by the manufacturers of those vaccines and medical preparations. The risks associated with thimerosal use in vaccines have been discussed in an interim report to clinicians (American Academy of Pediatrics 1999). [Pg.60]

Prepare in advance a number of spare linen and drugs as well as other medical preparations, which should be at disposal of the medical personnel around the clock to serve a preliminary determined average number of poisoned. Such readiness is necessary in the preparatory chapter of the unified doctrine, to avoid the mess, loss of time in case of incident, which is usually on the account of the patients [1, 5, 6, 11],... [Pg.27]

This was the unexpected solution of a problem which had puzzled researchers for centuries. In 1651 Hernandez, in his book on Mexican medical preparations, gave a drawing of the plant whose seeds were called Ololuiqui and he described how Mexican priests swallowed Ololuiqui seeds if they wanted to get in touch with their gods. For more than 400 years the identity of the plant with the hallucinogenic seeds was doubtful until R. E. Schultes and H. Osmond showed that the two plants were Ipomoea and Rivea, and thus the road for systematic chemical studies was opened. [Pg.466]
