Drug Classes and Categories01:25

Drug Classes and Categories

2.4K
Drugs can be classified according to their chemical composition or their intended therapeutic application. For instance, anti-infective agents that possess the ability to eliminate pathogens or suppress their growth and reproduction can be grouped based on the organisms they target or their chemical structure. Furthermore, drugs can be divided into prescription, nonprescription, or controlled substances. Prescription medications, such as antibiotics, require oversight from a licensed healthcare...

Hand hygiene

4.4K
Asepsis is the practice of preventing or breaking the chain of infection. The nurse employs aseptic techniques to prevent the spread of microorganisms and reduce the risk of diseases. Hand hygiene is the cornerstone of aseptic techniques and is classified into medical and surgical asepsis. Medical asepsis includes hand hygiene and the use of gloves. Surgical asepsis, or the sterile technique, refers to practices that render and keep objects and areas free of microorganisms.

In Vitro Drug Dissolution: Alternative Methods

Alternative drug dissolution methods include the rotating bottle, intrinsic dissolution test, peristalsis, and the Franz diffusion cell method. The rotating bottle method involves meticulously rotating tightly capped controlled-release beads in a temperature-controlled bath. Periodic decanting of samples allows for residue assay, followed by refilling with fresh medium and testing at various pH levels to emulate the gastrointestinal tract conditions.In contrast, the intrinsic dissolution test...

Drug Nomenclature01:17

Drug Nomenclature

2.4K
During the development of a new pharmaceutical, the manufacturer initially assigns a code name to the drug. Once approved, the drug receives a United States Adopted Name (USAN)—a generic, nonproprietary designation. Upon being listed in the United States Pharmacopeia, this nonproprietary name becomes the drug's official name. Additionally, the manufacturer assigns a proprietary name or trademark, which serves as the brand name under which the drug is marketed. It is worth noting that...

In Vitro Drug Dissolution: Compendial Testing Models I

Compendial dissolution methods are standardized procedures defined by pharmacopeias to evaluate the rate at which a drug dissolves in a specific medium. These methods ensure batch-to-batch consistency, enable quality control, and support the prediction of drug bioavailability. They are critical for both immediate and modified-release drug products.The apparatuses used for dissolution testing differ in their design and mechanical function, but all aim to simulate the physiological environment of...

Structure and Nomenclature of Alcohols and Phenols02:23

Structure and Nomenclature of Alcohols and Phenols

18.7K
Overview
Alcohols are one of the most important functional groups in organic chemistry. The name of alcohol comes from the hydrocarbon from which it is derived. Alcohols are organic molecules containing the functional hydroxyl or –OH group directly bonded to carbon. Phenols have an OH group directly attached to a benzene ring. While alcohols are colorless, phenol is a white crystalline compound with a characteristic "hospital smell" odor.
As with other organic compounds,...

Area of Science:

  • Dentistry
  • Endodontics
  • Natural Products Chemistry

Background:

  • Root canal therapy relies on irrigating solutions for complete disinfection.
  • Herbal extracts are increasingly used in endodontics due to their benefits and fewer side effects.
  • A standardized classification for herbal endodontic irrigants is currently lacking.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To propose a novel classification system for herbal endodontic irrigants.
  • To provide an overview of the diversity of available herbal irrigants.
  • To guide the selection and application of herbal irrigants in clinical practice and research.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review to identify existing herbal endodontic irrigants.
  • Development of a structured classification framework based on properties and applications.
  • Analysis of the potential uses and benefits of each classified irrigant.

Main Results:

  • A comprehensive classification system for herbal endodontic irrigants has been developed.
  • The system categorizes irrigants based on their origin, properties, and therapeutic actions.
  • It highlights the specific applications and advantages of various herbal agents in endodontics.

Conclusions:

  • The proposed classification system offers a structured approach to understanding herbal endodontic irrigants.
  • It will facilitate research, education, and clinical decision-making in endodontics.
