- Abstract
Pharmaceutical and industrial use of automation and robots has been growing and gaining varied applications in the pharmacy field. Pharmacy automation is the automation of tasks performed in pharmacy or other health care procedures. A number of task may be involved including measuring and mixing powders and liquids for compounding; counting small objects (e.g., tablets, capsules); tracking and updating customer information in databases (e.g., personally identifiable information, medical history, drug interaction risk detection); and inventory management etc. Automation is gaining use in pharmaceutical industries in drug screening, drug discovery, chemical synthesis, compound purification, data management, dosage form sample preparation, dissolution testing, bio-analytical technology, chemical analysis, solid phase extraction, validation, product formulation and combinatorial chemistry. Presently the structure evaluation is computer – automated, and its recognize structures of molecules, which is a linear coding routine of the molecules automatically and then further identifies, tabulates, which are substructures for the biological activity of molecules, statistically. Robots are capable of performing various tasks in laboratory, life science with higher accuracy and precision. Robots can function with the least exposure to the hazardous situations with relative less harm as compared with humans. Since the high number of samples that need analysis and the amount of data collection required, the process and costs are easily validated.
