Each participant in the simple ceremonial felt deeply the significance of the occasion, as being the unveiling of the first monument erected by pharmacists to a pharmacist in the United States. It is to be hoped that this evidence of appreciation by pharmacists of a fellow worker may mark the beginning of a more general recognition of pharmacists who have shed. luster on the profession. Pharmacy has produced and will continue in the future to produce many able, conscientious men wholly devoted to their profession, and it is well to give some imperishable token of our recognition and appreciation of such men. Certainly the roll of honor is well begun with the name of Charles Rice. FLUID EXTRACTS FOR THE FRENCH CODEX M ONSIEUR BORQUELOT has announced that the official commission charged with the revision of the French Codex or Pharmacopoeia has decided to introduce a number of fluid extracts into that work. This action was taken in response to representations from a number of pharmacists who argued that fluid extracts. are desirable preparations, and have been adopted by the Pharmacopoeias of a number of countries. The fluid extracts which will be admitted to the Codex are those of rhamnus frangula, cascara, coca, condurango, grindelia hamamelis, hydrastis, kola, sarsaparilla and viburnum. These extracts will be prepared on the American plan— i. e., one minim of the extract will correspond to one grain of the plant. There will be two types of methods of preparation. In the first method, which will be prescribe for rhamnus, cascara, coca, condurango, hydrastis and kola, the liquid residue obtained on percolation after o Cc. of percolate are set aside will be evaporated to zoo Cc., which will be added to the 800 Cc. set aside first. In the second type of fluid extracts, to which belong hamamelis, grindelia, sarsaparilla and viburnum, the residue is to be evaporated to the consistency of a soft extract, and this is to be added to the 800 Cc. set aside, which will be brought up to 1000 Cc. by the addition of alcohol of the same strength as that used in percolation. The strength chosen for the alcoholic menstruum in each case was determined after researches conducted by M. Warin, as follows: For rhamus and sarsaparilla, 30 per cent.; for cascara and coca, 50 per cent.; for condurango and hamamelis, 45 per cent.; for kola, 60 per cent.; |
