How To Set Up A Patent Medicine (Chemist) Store In Nigeria

Patent Medicine Store A patent medicine store popularly known as a chemist is a store that stock and sell over the counter (O.T.C) drugs. However, patent medicine stores are not supposed to be called chemist. Pharmacists Council of Nigeria (P.C.N) at such capacity approves them to operate within the shores of the country. Patent stores are managed, not by the pharmacist but by individuals who feel the need to serve the nation in such capacity. They are found in major villages where pharmacist stores are scarce. They also serve to augment the services of the pharmacist in towns and cities. This business is very lucrative and so the requirements are a little bit strict. The requirements to own one is similar within the country. However, the ability to keep up in the business may require a little knowledge on the drugs. Registration Of Patent Medicine Store In Ogun State, it is practically a straightforward thing. The major requirement is to get yourself registere...

GLT 303 LECTURE NOTE

INCUBATOR In biology, an incubator is a device used to grow and maintain microbiological cultures or cell cultures. The incubator maintains optimal temperature, humidity and other conditions such as the carbon dioxide (CO2) and oxygen content of the atmosphere inside. Incubators are essential for a lot of experimental work in cell biology, microbiology and molecular biology and are used to culture both bacterial as well as eukaryotic cells. The simplest incubators are insulated boxes with an adjustable heater, typically going up to 60 to 65 °C (140 to 150 °F), though some can go slightly higher (generally to no more than 100 °C). The most commonly used temperature both for bacteria such as the frequently used E. coli as well as for mammalian cells is approximately 37 °C (99 °F), as these organisms grow well under such conditions. For other organisms used in biological experiments, such as the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, a growth temperature of 30 °C (86 °F) is optimal....

STM 312 LECTURE 1 THEORY CLASS ( MICROBIOLOGICAL TECHNIQUES)

TITLE: Microscopy (Using the microscope) The setting up of a microscope is a basic skill of microbiology yet it is rarely mastered. Only when it is done properly can the smaller end of the diversity of life be fully appreciated and its many uses in practical microbiology, from aiding identification to checking for contamination, be successfully accomplished. The amount of magnification of which a microscope is capable is an important feature but it is the resolving power that determines the amount of detail that can be seen. All optical microscopes share the same basic components: The eyepiece is a cylinder containing two or more lenses to bring the image to focus for the eye. The eyepiece is inserted into the top end of the body tube. Eyepieces are interchangeable and many different eyepieces can be inserted with different degrees of magnification. Typical magnification values for eyepieces include 5x, 10x and 2x. In some high-performance microscopes, the optical configuration o...
