Nano-Technology: An Overview

HISTORY Prof. Paul Ehrlich gave the concept of “magic bullet” for drug targeting. Prof. Peter Paul Speiser and his co-workers developed first nanoparticles for drug delivery purpose and for vaccines in the late 1960s. NANOTECHNOLOGY Nanotechnology is the design, characterization, production and application of structures, devices and systems by controlling shape and size at nanometer scale.(The Royal Society Report, July 2004) It is a multi-disciplinary subject involving the use of physics, chemistry, biology and engineering. There are two fundamentally different approaches to nanotechnology: “Top-down” is the production of nanoscale structures by taking a bulk material and forming it into a desired structure. “Bottom-up” refers to building organic and inorganic structures atom by atom or molecule by molecule. NANOPARTICLES Nanoparticles are solid colloidal particles consisting of macromolecular substances that vary in size f...

PREPARATION OF HOSPITAL FORMULARY

PREPARATION OF FORMULARY ·          Formulation is an essential part of hospital pharmacy. ·          It has been a focal point for improving drug therapy in hospitals. ·          Effectiveness of formulary system depends on the abilities of the pharmacist involved with it. ·          Although the majority of formulary decisions are made by Pharmacy and Therapeutic Committee but well planned system provides both structure and flexibility and encompasses both selection of drugs and criteria for drug use. ·          These special features allow for standardization to reduce errors, wastage and required personnel time. Advantage: ·          To discourage the use of “less than optimal drug therapy”, and ·     ...
