Why this book
- Strictly as per PCI NEP 2020 (BP106T): all five units in the official syllabus order.
- The analytical foundation: techniques of analysis, sources and types of errors, and limit tests for chloride, sulphate, iron, arsenic, lead and heavy metals.
- Every titration explained: acid–base (including non-aqueous), precipitation and gravimetry, complexometric and redox (permanganometry, iodimetry, iodometry).
- Inorganic pharmaceuticals with their uses: buffers and electrolytes, gastrointestinal agents, expectorants, emetics, haematinics, and poisons and antidotes.
- Radiopharmaceuticals: radioactivity, the applications of radioisotopes (I-131, Tc-99m, Co-60, P-32) and their safe handling.
About this book
Pharmaceutical Inorganic and Analytical Chemistry (BP106T) gives B.Pharm students both the analytical toolkit of pharmacy and a knowledge of the inorganic compounds used in medicine. This textbook follows the PCI NEP 2020 syllabus unit by unit, so students study exactly what their university examines.
It begins with pharmaceutical analysis — techniques, the expression of solution strength, primary and secondary standards, errors and their minimisation, and the limit tests for common impurities — then covers acid–base chemistry, buffers and physiological electrolytes with acid–base titrations. It works through non-aqueous, precipitation, gravimetric and complexometric titrations, and redox titrations, alongside gastrointestinal agents and radiopharmaceuticals (radioactivity, radioisotope applications and safe handling), closing with miscellaneous inorganic compounds — expectorants, emetics, haematinics, and poisons and antidotes.
Numerical and analytical concepts are explained step by step in clear English, so students can follow the procedures and reproduce them under exam conditions. Written by Kratika Daniel, Sarika Sharma and Vivek Daniel, and published by Shree Sai Prakashan, Meerut, for B.Pharm First Year students at every PCI-approved institution.
Syllabus coverage · PCI NEP 2020 BP106T
See the full BP106T syllabus →Unit 1 · Pharmaceutical Analysis, Errors & Impurities 7 hrs
Techniques of analysis and methods of expressing the strength of solutions; primary and secondary standards; sources and types of errors and their minimization, accuracy, precision and significant figures; and impurities in pharmaceuticals with limit tests for chloride, sulphate, iron, arsenic, lead and heavy metals.
Unit 2 · Acid–Base Chemistry, Buffers & Electrolytes 8 hrs
Acids, bases and buffers, the pH scale and buffer equation; isotonicity in IV fluids and ophthalmic solutions; major physiological electrolytes and replacement therapy (sodium chloride, potassium chloride, ORS); and acid–base titrations with the preparation and standardization of titrants.
Unit 3 · Non-aqueous, Precipitation & Complexometric Titrations 14 hrs
Non-aqueous titrations and the estimation of weakly acidic and basic substances; precipitation titrations and gravimetry (Mohr's, Volhard's and Fajans methods); and complexometric titrations with metal-ion indicators and the standardization of disodium EDTA.
Unit 4 · Redox Titrations, GI Agents & Radiopharmaceuticals 10 hrs
Redox titrations (permanganometry, cerimetry, iodimetry, iodometry); gastrointestinal agents — acidifiers, antacids and antimicrobials; and radiopharmaceuticals — radioactivity, applications of radioisotopes (I-131, Tc-99m, Co-60, P-32) and their safe handling.
Unit 5 · Miscellaneous Inorganic Compounds 6 hrs
Expectorants (potassium iodide, ammonium chloride), emetics, haematinics (ferrous sulphate, ferrous gluconate), and poisons and antidotes.
