Digest of Comments on The Pharmacopoeia of the United States of America and on the National Formulary for the Calendar Year Ending December 31, 1920

Résumé du livre

This is the sixteenth bulletin in the series of Hygienic Laboratory publications known as the Digest of Comments on the Pharmacopoeia of the United States and the National Formulary. Like preceding numbers of the series, it represents an attempt to compile abstracts of all of the literature pertaining to the two named standards published during the calendar year. As in previous bulletins of this series, there has been included the more important of the comments on food and drug laws, antinarcotic laws, poison laws, drug inspection work, cultivation of medicinal plants, drug markets, synthetic remedies, chemotherapy, antiseptics and disinfectants, biologics, and foreign pharmacopoeias and standards. The intent in these cases has been to reflect the general trend of comment and to bring to notice new features rather than to review the literature completely.
