 The Pharmacist
Pharmacists are healthcare professionals that deal
primarily with dispensing medications and managing
patient medication regimens.

The pharmacist has many responsibilities. The

pharmacist fills prescriptions from doctors. The
pharmacist also counsels the patient about medication,
side effects, and how to use the medication correctly.
Another responsibility of the pharmacist is to manage
and monitor patient medication profiles. Pharmacists
must check for drug interactions, proper prescribing and
drug safety. The pharmacist works closely with patients,
physicians, and other healthcare professionals to provide
medication to the patient.
Roles of the pharmacist:
 Reviewing and monitoring patient medication regimens

 General health advice

 Counseling patients about disease states and medication

 Dispensing medication by prescription

 Counseling patients about the best use of medication

Pharmacists work in a variety of places with many different

specialties. Pharmacists are often the first person patients ask
for medical advice. With their position in the community and
because they are very accessible, pharmacists play a major role
in patient care.

Influenza
What is it? Influenza (the flu) is a respiratory illness caused by
Influenza A and Influenza B viruses. Influenza season in Canada is
usually November through April.
Signs and symptoms of influenza may include:
􀂾 Fever
􀂾 Cough, sneezing, runny nose
􀂾 Headache
􀂾 Body aches and pain
􀂾 Exhaustion
􀂾 Sore throat
􀂾 Nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea are more common in children than
adults.

Influenza is most serious for babies less than 2 years of age, adults
over 65 years of age, and people with chronic illnesses.
How does it spread?
 Breathing in droplets containing influenza virus

that have been coughed or sneezed into the air by

an infected person.
 Direct contact with the hands of an infected

person (e.g., shaking hands, holding hands).

 Contact with an object contaminated with the

influenza virus (e.g., toys, furniture, doorknob,

computer keyboard, telephone etc).
 Influenza viruses can live for several hours on

hard surfaces. Caregivers may get the flu virus on

their hands by assisting a child to use a tissue and
then spread it to other children by touching them.
Incubation period Usually 1 – 4 days from contact with an infected
person
When is the person contagious?
Usually from 1 day before to 5 days after symptoms develop (up to 7
days after symptoms develop for young children)
How to prevent spread of the illness to other children.
Child may attend school or child care if they feel well enough to take
part in activities.
Carefully dispose of things, or articles from nose and throat secretion.

For more information, refer to Routine Practices.

 Handwashing is the best way to stop the spread of infections.

 Influenza vaccine is recommended and provided free for:

 • children 6 to 23 months of age

 • those providing regular child care to children 0 to 23 months of

age
 • children and adults with a health condition that places them at

high risk for influenza.

Solubility Test
In general, SOLUBILITY is an ability of a
substance to dissolve. In the process of
dissolving, the substance which is being
dissolved is called a solute and the substance
in which the solute is dissolved is called
a solvent. A mixture of solute and solvent is
called a solution
Distillation – Separation of a Mixture
 Distillation
 Distillation is a commonly used method for
purifying liquids and separating mixtures of
liquids into their individual components.
Familiar examples include the distillation of
crude fermentation broths into alcoholic spirits
such as vodka, and the fractionation of crude
oil into useful products such as gasoline and
heating oil. In the organic lab, distillation is
used for purifying solvents and liquid reaction
products.
Distillation Process
Purpose:

 To purify a compound by separating it from a

non-volatile or volatile material.
 To separate a mixture of two miscible liquids

(liquids that mix in all proportions) with

different boiling points.
Place 30 ml of an unknown liquid mixture (15ml A + 15 ml B) that
is to be purified by simple distillation and for which the boiling
point range is to be determined.
Assemble the assigned distillation apparatus (simple or fractional).
Transfer the unknown liquid to a 50 mL round bottom flask (this
will be the distilling pot). Add one boiling stone, and proceed to
distill the liquid into a 10 mL graduated cylinder (this will be the
receiver). Check the position of the thermometer (the bulb of the
thermometer must be below the arm of the distillation head) and
make sure that the bottom of the distillating pot touching the
heating surface of the heating mantel. Securely attach a piece of
condenser tubing to each condenser outlets. Securely connect the
other end of the “water in” tubing to the water jet in the sink (or
hood). Place the other end of the “water out” tubing in the sink (or
back of the hood). Plug in the heating mantle and before heating
your distillation apparatus or turning on the water for cooling the
condenser, have your laboratory instructor check your distillation
apparatus.
Translation
A new antibiotic kills pathogens without detectable
resistance
Abstract
Antibiotic resistance is spreading faster than the introduction of
new compounds into clinical practice, causing a public health crisis.
Most antibiotics were produced by screening soil microorganisms, but
this limited resource of cultivable bacteria was overmined by the
1960s. Synthetic approaches to produce antibiotics have been unable
to replace this platform. Uncultured bacteria make up approximately
99% of all species in external environments, and are an untapped
source of new antibiotics.
We developed several methods to grow uncultured organisms by
cultivation in situ or by using specific growth factors. Here we report a
new antibiotic that we term teixobactin, discovered in a screen of
uncultured bacteria. Teixobactin inhibits cell wall synthesis by binding
to a highly conserved motif of lipid II (precursor of peptidoglycan) and
lipid III (precursor of cell wall teichoic acid). We did not obtain any
mutants of Staphylococcus aureus or Mycobacterium tuberculosis
resistant to teixobactin. The properties of this compound suggest a
path towards developing antibiotics that are likely to avoid
development of resistance.
Sebuah antibiotik baru membunuh patogen tanpa perlawanan terdeteksi

Abstrak

Resistensi antibiotik menyebar lebih cepat dari pengenalan senyawa baru ke

dalam praktek klinis, menyebabkan krisis kesehatan masyarakat. Kebanyakan
antibiotik yang diproduksi oleh skrining mikroorganisme tanah, tetapi sumber
daya ini terbatas bakteri diolah itu overmined oleh 1960-an. Pendekatan sintetis
untuk menghasilkan antibiotik tidak mampu untuk menggantikan platform ini.
Bakteri berbudaya membentuk sekitar 99% dari semua spesies di lingkungan
eksternal, dan merupakan sumber yang belum dimanfaatkan antibiotik baru.
Kami mengembangkan beberapa metode untuk tumbuh organisme berbudaya
dengan budidaya in situ atau dengan menggunakan faktor pertumbuhan tertentu.
Di sini kita melaporkan antibiotik baru yang we teixobactin jangka, ditemukan di
layar bakteri berbudaya. Teixobactin menghambat sintesis dinding sel dengan
mengikat motif yang sangat lestari dari lipid II (prekursor peptidoglikan) dan lipid
III (prekursor dari dinding sel asam teikoik). Kami tidak mendapatkan apapun
mutan Staphylococcus aureus atau Mycobacterium tuberculosis resisten terhadap
teixobactin. Sifat dari senyawa ini menunjukkan jalan menuju pengembangan
antibiotik yang mungkin untuk menghindari perkembangan resistensi.
