Pharmaceutical Technology

  • 1st Edition
  • Bozzano G Luisa
  • English
This first volume of the Dictionary of Pharmaceutical Science and Techniques covers terms used in pharmaceutical technology both in its applications in pharmacy proper and in the pharmaceutical industry.In view of the diversity of methods used in the manufacture and testing of drugs and the great variety of fields from which these methods originate also some general terms relating to physics, engineering and technology are included. Commercial terminology has also been added where it has direct bearing on the subject.

Materia Medica

  • 1st Edition
  • Volume 2
  • Bozzano G Luisa
  • English
This second volume of the Dictionary of Pharmaceutical Science and Techniques presents the equivalents in six languages of substances of vegetal and animal origin which enter into the composition of drugs for human and animal consumption. The work comprises a basic table of the terms and their synonyms in English, arranged alphabetically, followed by their translations in French, German, Spanish, Italian and Latin. This arrangement facilitates a most convenient reference system for scientific researchers and translators. The incorporation of the terms in Latin will be particularly useful for those working in countries where scientific terminology is predominantly in this language. Although the dictionary does not aim to be exhaustive, it will prove a valuable tool for scientific researchers and translators involved in the field of pharmaceutical science.

Powder Technology and Pharmaceutical Processes

  • 1st Edition
  • Volume 9
  • D. Chulia + 2 more
  • English
This volume offers a multidisciplinary approach to the operations most commonly used in processing solids in the field of pharmacy and also in the fields of fine chemicals, cosmetics, foods, etc. The authors combine the triple standpoint of formulation, physical characterization of materials and process engineering and have selected the basic facts needed to understand the phenomena by which molecules become particles, particles become granules and granules become tablets, extrudates, microcapsules, etc. These operations are then described in very practical terms, including assessment of their effectiveness and limitations, and critical steps are highlighted.About twenty operations carried out on divided solids are described, ranging from crystallization to formulation, in a manner intended to be within the grasp of all involved: it is not a book solely for specialists, but offers a multidisciplinary background and a methodological help to progress. The first six chapters are devoted to theoretical aspects of thermodynamics, kinetics, characterization and sampling of powder in order to clarify the conversions described in the chapters which follow. The remaining nine chapters describe the formation of particles, their drying, granulation, mixing compression and finally dissolution. Specific operations such as dehydration/impregnation, spherical crystallization and the series of operations involved in micro-encapsulation are also treated.The behavior of particulate materials is of interest to formulation scientists as well as to physical chemists and process engineers. This book offers them a concise and effective account, including their various points of view and highlights the importance of the physical approach. The essential and innovatory interactions between materials and processes are described which are necessary in choosing the correct scale of observation, the appropriate parameters and the right measurements in order to prepare the right material for the expected function, by appropriate formulation and/or process methods.

Intellectual Property Rights, Naturally Derived Bioactive Compounds and Resource Conservation

  • English
The tropical rain forests have become an important focus in the search for new drugs from natural sources, especially from plants. This volume aims to promote a better understanding between scientists and institutions located in the developed and developing countries, in their efforts to search for new medicinal agents from the plants of these forests. The papers have been contributed by scientists and researchers from both developed and developing countries worldwide, and cover issues relevant to biodiversity prospecting activities. Such issues include rules and regulations on the collection of genetic materials for biological testing; logistical and technical challenges to be faced; sharing the benefits of discovery; patent protection for the discovery of potentially useful drug candidates; intellectual property rights; and indigenous property rights. The volume will be invaluable in achieving more fruitful collaborative efforts between scientists from different countries and different institutional affiliations, in their search for new drugs from tropical forest plants.
