For more information, call the CPSC’s toll-free hotline at 1-800-638-2772 or visit its website at http://www.cpsc.gov. Poison Prevention Packaging: A Guide For Healthcare Professionals (revised 2005) Preface The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) administers the Poison Prevention Packaging Act of 1970 (PPPA), 15 U.S.C. §§ 1471-1476. The PPPA requires special (child-resistant and adult-friendly) packaging of a wide range of hazardous household products including most oral prescription drugs. Healthcare professionals are more directly involved with the regulations dealing with drug products than household chemical products. Over the years that the regulations have been in effect, there have been remarkable declines in reported deaths from ingestions by children of toxic household substances including medications. Despite this reduction in deaths, many children are poisoned or have "near-misses" with medicines and household chemicals each year. Annually, there are about 30 deaths of children under 5 years of age who are unintentionally poisoned. Data from the National Electronic Injury Surveillance System (a CPSC database of emergency room visits) indicate that in 2003, an estimated 78,000 children under 5 years of age were treated for poisonings in hospital emergency rooms in the United States.

  • Preparation of Aspirin, Methyl Salicylate and Nylon Experiment #6
    Preparation of Aspirin, Methyl Salicylate and Nylon Experiment #6 Objective: To observe the contrasts in appearance and odor of two different esters of salicylic acid, namely aspirin and methyl salicylate. The preparation of nylon will be demonstrated. Introduction Salicylic acid is a phenolic acid, indicating it has two functional groups on the benzene ring, an -OH group and a -COOH group. Aspirin and oil of wintergreen are esters of salicylic acid. Aspirin is the ester of salicylic acid and acetic acid (acetyl salicylic acid), whereas oil of wintergreen is the ester of salicylic acid and methanol (methyl salicylate). The chemical name for aspirin, acetyl salicylic acid, is not easily recognized as the name of an ester. However, the chemical name for oil of wintergreen, methyl salicylate, should readily be recognized as the name of an ester. In the preparation of aspirin the -OH group of salicylic acid reacts with the acetyl group of acetic acid or acetic anhydride to form acetyl salicylic acid. The formation of aspirin will proceed faster if acetic anhydride is used in place of acetic acid. However, acetic anhydride will hydrolyze in the presence of water to form acetic acid, slowing down the reaction. Hence, the reaction vessel must be very DRY to ensure a complete reaction. Sulfuric acid, H2SO4, is used as a dehydrating agent. The aspirin will be isolated by filtration and washed several times with ice cold deionized water to remove the water soluble impurities (acetic acid and sulfuric acid). Aspirin is quite insoluble in ice cold water, but is relatively soluble in warm water (1 g dissolves in 100 mL water at 37EC).

  • The Two Faces of Capsaicin
    Published OnlineFirst April 12, 2011; DOI: 10.1158/0008-5472.CAN-10-3756 Cancer Review Research The Two Faces of Capsaicin Ann M. Bode and Zigang Dong Abstract Capsaicin (trans-8-methyl-N-vanillyl-6-nonenamide) is the principal pungent component in hot peppers, including red chili peppers, jalapeños, and habaneros. Consumed worldwide, capsaicin has a long and convoluted history of controversy about whether its consumption or topical application is entirely safe. Conflicting epidemiologic data and basic research study results suggest that capsaicin can act as a carcinogen or as a cancer preventive agent. Capsaicin is unique among naturally occurring irritant compounds because the initial neuronal excitation evoked is followed by a long-lasting refractory period, during which the previously excited neurons are no longer responsive to a broad range of stimuli. This process is referred to as desensitization and has been exploited for its therapeutic potential. Capsaicin-containing creams have been in clinical use for many years to relieve a variety of painful conditions. However, their effectiveness in pain relief is also highly debated and some adverse side effects have been reported. We have found that chronic, long-term topical application of capsaicin increased skin carcinogenesis in mice treated with a tumor promoter. These results might imply that caution should be exercised when using capsaicin-containing topical applications in the presence of a tumor promoter, such as, for example, sunlight.

    v16F_mouthrinsetable_Layout 1 3/28/14 11:04 AM Page 30 FOCUSonMOUTHRINSES This informative table provides details about the therapeutic and cosmetic mouthrinses currently available. Do patients truly understand how mouthrinses work? Some may think of them as “magic bullets” that will cure their dental ailments with just a swish and spit. Oral health professionals, however, know that this is not the case. Patients still need advice on the proper usage and selection of mouthrinses, and the best resource for mouthrinse information is you—their dental hygienist. As the dental team member whose focus is prevention, your knowledge of mouthrinses is paramount to providing excellent patient care. With so many different mouthrinses on the market today, keeping up to date on the prod- ucts available is challenging. This Dimensions of Dental Hygiene mouthrinse guide is intended to help you sort through both the therapeutic and cosmetic mouthrinse options. When consider- ing over-the-counter therapeutic mouthrinses, noting which products have received the American Dental Association’s Seal of Acceptance is also helpful, as they have been evaluated for safety and efficacy. We hope you find this guide useful when making product recommen- dations to patients who wish to add rinsing to their daily oral care regimens. —Jill Rethman, RDH, BA Editor in Chief Note: Mouthrinse manufacturers in the United States were invited to submit information for this table.

  • Experiment 22 Synthesis of Aspirin and Oil of Wintergreen
    Experiment 22 Synthesis of Aspirin and Oil of Wintergreen GOALS: In this two-week experiment the important area of organic chemistry will be illustrated by the preparation and characterization of two compounds. The usefulness of functional groups will be illustrated as well as the use of NMR, IR, and melting point in characterizing a product. The analysis will be done next week in Experiment 23. INTRODUCTION: Synthesis and use of organic compounds is an extremely important area of modern chemistry. Approximately half of all chemists work with organic chemicals. In everyday life, many if not most of the chemicals you come in contact with are organic chemicals. Examples include drugs, synthetic fabrics, paints, plastics, etc. Synthesis of Aspirin and Methyl Salicylate. The two compounds we will be preparing, aspirin (acetylsalicylic acid) and oil of wintergreen (methyl salicylate), are both organic esters. An ester is a compound that is formed when an acid (containing the –COOH group) reacts with an alcohol (a compound containing an –OH group). O O + C O C + O Eqn 1 R O H 1 H R2 R O R H H 1 2 ester water acid alcohol Here R1 and R2 represent groups such as CH3– or CH3CH2–. The reaction type shown above may be called a condensation reaction because the small molecule H2O is eliminated from the reactants while the remaining bits of the reactants condense together to give the main product. This reaction may also be called an esterification, since the product of the reaction is an ester, a compound containing the CO2R group (see chapter 20 for definitions of acids, esters, and alcohols).
