Sir,

I have the honour to report that as far as can be seen at present the British Pharmacopoeia of 1898 contains all that is needed here from a pharmaceutical point of view. The alternative preparations sanctioned for use in India and the Colonies as described in Appendix XI of the Pharmacopoeia are a welcome addition as the insertion of such has legalized those alterations in formulae that conditions of climate and situation have compelled pharmacists to make in a Colony such as this.

2. Although not official, Extract of Malt is largely used here and frequently the samples submitted for approval are received in a fermented condition. A suggestion is therefore made that it would save manufacturers' time if to similar preparations a fermentation test could be applied, as probably were such preparations to be submitted to a temperature of about 80° F for ...

The Principal Civil Medical Officer.

Sir,

I have the honour to report that as far as can be

seen at present the British Pharmacopaeia of 1898 contains all

that is needed here from a pharmaceutical point of view. The

alternative preparations sanctioned for use in India and the

Colonies as described in Appendix X1 of the Pharmacopaeia are

a welcome addition as the insertion of such has legalized those

alterations in formulae that conditions of climate and situa-

tion have compelled pharmacists to make in a Colony such as

this.

2. Although not official, Extract of Malt is largely used here

and frequently the samples submitted for approval are received

in a fermented condition. A suggestion is therefore made that

it would save manufacturers' time if to similar preparations

a fermentation test could be applied,as probably were such pre- parations to be submitted to a temperature of about 80° F for

The Principal Civil Medical Officer.
