Abstract

This article presents a method that uses an amalgam capsule and an amalgamator to simplify the preparation of eucapercha paste. The pestle, rubbing against the gutta-percha inside the amalgam capsule, generates enough frictional heat to blend the gutta-percha and the eucalyptol. The consistency of the mixture can be adjusted for a variety of clinical situations.

Supercritical fluid extraction of active components in a drug formulation.

Sulfamethoxazole and trimethoprim have been extracted from a drug formulation, Septra Infusion, with pure supercritical carbon dioxide. Both direct extraction of the aqueous-based matrix and indirect extraction of the formulation immobilized onto Celite were studied. Exhaustive analytical extraction was achieved when active components were less than 1.0 mg. A number of co-extractants were found, but each was blind to the HPLC/UV assay.
