ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:To explore the ways and methods for pharmacists to participate in community pharmaceutical care, and to provide reference for guaranteeing safe use of drugs in the elderly. METHODS:Questionnaire survey about medication situa-tions and pharmaceutical care demands was conducted among the elderly randomly selected from some communities of Guangzhou Yuexiu District and Liwan District. The investigation data was analyzed statistically. RESULTS:Totally 300 questionnaires were sent out,and 283 were recycled with effective recovery rate of 94.33%. Among respondents,64.66% geriatric people had a high school education or above and 87.99% elderly people enjoyed medical insurance for urban residents;the major health problems of the elderly were chronic diseases like hypertension,osteoporosis,hyperlipidemia,diabetes. 55.48% interviewees preferred to pur-chasing drugs from governmental hospitals and 40.28% interviewees used to purchase drugs from community hospitals;in terms of understanding of drug information,72.08% interviewees tended to consult doctors about drug use but only 12.72% intervieweestended to consult hospital pharmacists about drug use. Interviewees often took various kinds of drugs,there were 72.44%interview-ees taking drugs according to the doctor's advice. 44.88%interviewees accustomed to storing drugs at discretion. 68.20%interview-ees deemed that the responsibilities of the pharmacists were drug dispensing,but only 28.27% interviewees thought that pharma-cists could provide medication guidance and consultation;in terms of community pharmaceutical care,interviewee had much great-er demands to daily care and rational drug use of lectures. CONCLUSION:Geriatric people take many different drugs to treat their diseases in those communities,there are many problems that are not conducive to safe drug use. Those reflected urgent need for community pharmaceutical care,and then higher requirements are put forward for the professional quality of pharmacists.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE: To establish a method for endotoxin assay in aminoglycoside antibiotics for injection.METHODS: Kinetic turbidimetric limulus test was used for endotoxin assay in aminoglycoside antibiotics for injection.The recovery rate of bacterial endotoxin was determined though pre-interference experiments in which quantitative endotoxin was added to different concentrations of aminoglycosides with the concentration optimized,then an interference test on 4 different samples was conducted.RESULTS: At a concentration of 0.5 mg?mL-1,aminoglycosides didn't interfere with the limulus test if the amount of standard endotoxin was at 5.000,0.500,and 0.050 EU?mL-1,respectively.CONCLUSIONS: The kinetic turbidimetric limulus test could be used for endotoxin assay in aminoglycoside antibiotics for injection.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:To establish the quality standard of Mageng phlegm - eliminating oral liquid.METHODS:Herba Ephedrae,Platycodon grandiflorum and Ophiopogon japonicus in Mageng phlegm - eliminating oral liquid were identified qualitatively by TLC,and the content of baicalin was determined by HPLC.RESULTS:Herba Ephedrae,Platycodon grandiflorum and Ophiopogon japonicus had been successfully detected by TLC.The linear range of baicalin was 0.102～1.734?g (r = 0.9996) with an average recovery of 97.19%(RSD = 1.20%,n = 6).CONCLUSION:The established quality standard is applicable for the quality control of Mageng phlegm -eliminating oral liquid.
ABSTRACT
Objective: The dynamic turbidimetry Limulus test was used to assay endotoxin content in Chuan Hu Ning injection. Methods: When the standardized endotoxin added in Chuan Hu Ning injection sample (Lot.No.000409) and in its 40-fold dilution, 80-fold dilution, 120-fold dilution and 200-fold dilution , the recovery was 0 %, 21.18 %, 76.69 %, 101.1 %and 117.8 %and as the standardized endotoxin added in the three batches of 200-fold dilution of Chuan Hu Ning injection (Lot.No.000408?000409?001023), the recovery was 110.5 %, 124.4 %and 87.98 %. Results: As standardized endotoxin concentration being 5.00, 0.500, 0.0500Eu/mL , the 200-fold dilution of Chuan Hu Ning injection is effective to eliminate the interference in the test. Conclusion: The dynamic turbidimetry Limulus test provides a new way for the determination of endotoxin in Chuan Hu Ning injection.
ABSTRACT
Object To determine the bacterial endotoxin in BREVISCAPINI INJECTION (BI) by kinetic turbidimetric limulus test Methods By spiking the amount of standard endotoxin into BI sample, the interference test was fulfiled to detect the recovery in the range of 50% 200% Results A 12 fold dilution to BI sample is effective to eliminate the interference in limulus test Conclusion The kinetic turbidimetric limulus test provides an efficient way to detect the bacterial endotoxin in BI sample
ABSTRACT
Objective: The kinetic turbidimetric limulus test was used in the endotoxin assay of Sodium Ferulate for injection. Methods: The preliminary validation test was fulfilled, when the standard endotoxin spiked in Sodium Ferulate for injection sample (Lot. No. 20000704) and its 10 fold dilution、 20 fold dilution、 40 fold dilution、 60 dilution、 80 fold dilution. The recoveries were 0.20%, 74.70%, 87.93%, 87.09%, 98.55%, 119.2% respectively. The optimum detection concentration found was 60 fold dilution. During the formal interference tests of 3 batches of Sodium Ferulate for injection (Lot. No. 20000308 20000704 20000315), the recoveries were 120.4%,98.55% and 85.40% respectively. Results: 5.00,0.500,0.0500 Eu/mL of standard endotoxin were used. The standard endotoxin was quantitatively added into the 60 fold dilution of Sodium Ferulate for injection. The recoveries were all 50%～200% and no interference action was found.Conclusion: The kinetict turbidimetric limulus test provided a new way to the detection of endotoxin in Sodium Ferulate for injection.
ABSTRACT
AIM The kinetic turbidimetric Limulus test was used in the endotoxin assay of Ceftazidime injection. METHODS The validation test was fulfiled ,when the amount of endotoxin spiked in Ceftazidime injection sample(Lot.No.010202) in which concentration of its dilution solution were 10,5,2,1,0 5 g?L -1 . They were recovered in 60 08%, 82 90%, 85 22%, 94 00%, 92 67%; with the amount of endotoxin spiked in Ceftazidime sample (Lot.No. 010103, 010104, 010202),their 1 g?L -1 dilution were recovered in 109 9%, 101 7% and 86 56%. RESULTS With standard endotoxin working curve is 5 00, 0 500, 0 0500 ZU?L -1 . The 1 g?L -1 solution to Ceftazidime was effective to eliminate the interference in Limulus test. CONCLUSION The kinetic turbidimetric Limulus test provide a new way to the detection of endotoxin in Ceftazidime injection.
