He claimed that the importance of this aspect of pharmacy has not been sufficiently appreciated in the past and that the pharmacist requires a wide knowledge of physical and chemical properties of materials. Evers said the pharmaceutical industry is probably concerned with a wider range of materials than any other, even including the food industry; and that the most important asset which the pharmacist possesses as a result of his training and experience is his familiarity with the properties of materials and his knowledge of their behaviour over a range of different circumstances.
Nowadays, the nature of the so-called inert ingredients — the excipient — of a formulation must be thoroughly tested. The excipient may include substances to increase the viscosity of a syrup, anti-oxidants or a coating to protect the drug from oxidation or the effect of stomach acid.
How chemists at Queen Mary University of London are helping secondary school science teachers include the contributions of BAME scientists in their teaching. Cognitive science promises to help us understand the human mind and, crucially for teachers, how it learns. It could improve your day-to-day teaching. Site powered by Webvision Cloud.

Pharmacology Pharmacology is the study of drugs. Apart from the small synthetic ligands and natural products, pharmaceutical chemists focus on the development of modified peptides and proteins, biological agents e.
This rapid development comes hand in hand with the advances in chemical biology, molecular modelling, and analytical methods generally in all medical fields. As a result, pharmaceutical chemistry has become a decisive and increasingly important part of modern medical, pharmaceutical and agrochemical research. Section of Pharmaceutical Technology.
