Book Description
Excerpt from The American Journal of Pharmacy, 1883, Vol. 55 Seeing that the gummy matter is the chief obstacle to exhaustion, the writer sought to decompose it, in a preliminary operation, by means of dilute sulphuric acid. F ailing With this, ammonia was tried with a little success; but having accidentally added some borax to the ammoniacal mixture a rapid coagulation was notioed. Upon this, powdered nux vomica was mixed With borax and percolated with a menstruum composed of equal measures of alcohol and water, and, although absolute exhaustion of the powder was readily achieved, the percolate possessed such an obstinate turbidity that the process, other wise so satisfactory, was yet a failure. Borio acid, applied in a similar manner, was as inefficient as other acids previously tried. It was next resolved to test potassium citrate, which insured a satisfactory product, and absolute extraction of the drug. Deeming a simpler saline body more appropriate and obtainable, the writer resorted to sodium chlo ride, and attained, above all others, the most perfect result.

Book Description
Excerpt from American Journal of Pharmacy, 1861, Vol. 9 With us, the demand has become quite frequent of late for silver and gold coated pills, several eminent practitioners prescribing this elegant finish, and we have acquired some experience in the manipulation. The above represents an apparatus we have had turned to order from hard wood for use in this process. In rolling the pills, care is taken to use no dusting powder of any kind, and to have them moderately damp, otherwise we moisten them with a little syrup, and then introduce them into the hollow sphere along with the requisite quantity of silver or gold leaf; a rapid motion is now given to the globe, and in a few seconds the pills are removed with a clear and bright coating. One dozen pills of average size, require one sheet of foil, and larger numbers in the same proportion. Some difficulty is experienced in giving a handsome coating to pills of Quevenne's Metallic Iron, on account of their black color; this can only be obviated by the use of a larger proportion of foil, which may be objectionable as interfering with their solubility notwithstanding its extreme tenuity. The taste of the pills is of course disguised in proportion to the completeness of the coating; in dispensing, no powder is necessary, the tendency to adhere to each other being obviated. Some of the old recipes direct to use a gallipot laid against the palm of the hand, for coating pills with the foil. We have found two porcelain capsules fitted to each other, the opening at the lips being covered by the thumb, to serve a very good purpose; but there is a decided saving in the use of an apparatus as above figured, any portion of the foil not adhering to one charge of pills will be ready for the next, besides the advantage which is gained by the leverage of the handle.

Excerpt from The American Journal of Pharmacy, 1863, Vol. 35: Published by Authority of the Philadelphia College of Pharmacy Gentlemen: I propose to set forth in a summary manner in this lecture the history of organic radicals, the study of which, though dating back scarcely thirty years, has produced fruitful results, and contributed largely to the development of organic chemistry. We give the name of radicals to particular compounds, whose complex nature may be rendered evident by the aid of physical forces, or by the intervention of reagents; but which, though formed of many elements, present the characters of simple bodies and exercise functions precisely similar. They are, in a word, compounds which possess the property of forming with' simple bodies, combinations entirely analogous to those which the latter produce by their mutual union. Among the radicals some are known in the isolated state; these may be handled and made to combine and to separate under influences which enable us to make and unmake chemical compounds of most varied character, such as cyanogen, cacodyl, stibethyl, &c.; but the greatest number, it must be admitted, have only a purely hypothetical existence. Among the latter are methyl, ethyl, acetyl, benzo'ile, ammonium, 850. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Description
Excerpt from The American Journal of Pharmacy, Vol. 29 In the London Journal of Pharmacy, vol. iii, page ICO, will be found an article, by Dr. Alexander Ure, upon the South American bark called the Malambo or Matias bark, a short extract of which will be found in the appendix to the U. S. Dispensatory, page 1849. Dr. Ure states in his paper, that Malambo or Matias bark is the product of a tree in Colombia, S. A., and that it was placed in his hands by Hugh Houston, Esq., which gentleman received it from Dr. Mackay, who communicated, two papers respecting it to the British Association, and mentions having procured from it by distillation two oils, one lighter than water, of a specific gravity 0-949; the other denser, of a specific gravity 1-028. He further obtained a brown, bitter extractive substance. Dr. Mackny remarked, that it had been successfully used in intermittent fever, in convalescence from continued fever, in hemicrania, dyspepsia, and a variety of chronic ailments, where tonics and stimulants were indicated; and that as an adjunct to diuretic remedies, it had been found eminently useful. Dr. Ure describes the Malambo or Matias bark to be three or four lines in thickness, brittle, though somewhat fibrous; emitting when fresh bruised an aromatic flavor, not unlike that of calamus; color of a brown hue, covered with an ash-colored tuberculous epiderm, and possessing a bitter pungent taste. With water it forms an agreeable bitter infusion; with alcohol, a powerful bitter tincture. Ether extracts from it volatile oil and resin. Heated along with hydrate of potash, free ammonia is disengaged, indicating the presence of an azotized principle. It is without astringency. It appears to coincide, as suggested to me b)T M. Guibourt, both in regard to physical and sensible properties, with Malambo, the Indian name for the bark of a tree which grows in New Granada, and which is held in high esteem among the natives as a febrifuge and stomachic. Malambo bark was analysed by M. Cadet Gassicourt, about twenty-eight years ago (Journ. de Pharmacies tom. ii, p. 372); subsequently by M. Vauquelin, who ascertained the presence of three distinct substances, namely: 1. An aromatic volatile oil. 2. A very bitter resin.

Excerpt from The American Journal of Pharmacy, 1905, Vol. 77: Published by Authority of the Philadelphia College of Pharmacy Under present methods, however, the expert witness is not sum mohed in his theoretical capacity Of impartial teacher and adviser, He is called apparently, and often in reality, as a partisan and an advocate. Indeed, whatever his own View mav be as to his relation to the case, he is usually regarded and treated as a partisan and advocate by judge, jury, lawyers, Spectators and newspapers. How Often do we read in great headlines of the Battle of the Experts How often is the speculation heard, privately or publicly, as to whether the prosecution or the defense will get Dr. With the implication that the other side will then necessarily get Dr. And that Drs. A. And B. Will, of equal necessity, express in court opposite Opinions on the same facts. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The American Journal of Pharmacy, Vol. 15 The second series proved that exhaustion was always difficult and generally imperfect with a coarse powder; and that the finer the powder, the more easy, the more perfect, and consequently the more economical was the exhaustion. The third series proved that the resin precipitated by water only, without acid, could not be separated at all without heat.
