ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE TO PREDICT NEW TREATMENT
Developing novel peptides from natural food sources is an exciting area of research with potential applications in nutrition and health. Here's a simplified overview of the process:
1. Source Selection: Start by identifying natural food sources rich in proteins, like milk, eggs, or legumes, as they can be good starting points for peptide discovery.
2. Protein Extraction: Extract proteins from the chosen food source using appropriate methods, such as precipitation or centrifugation.
3. Enzymatic Digestion: Use enzymes (e.g., proteases) to break down the extracted proteins into smaller peptide fragments. This step simulates the natural digestion process.
4. Purification: Purify the generated peptides through techniques like chromatography to isolate the desired fractions.
5. Identification: Analyse the purified peptides using mass spectrometry to identify their sequences.

ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGRNCE IN HOSPITAL PHARMACY 1. Medication Management : AI can assist in medication dispensing and inventory management, helping to reduce errors and optimize medication stock levels. 2. Drug Interaction Analysis : AI systems can quickly analyse patient records and medication lists to identify potential drug interactions and alert pharmacists to potential risks. 3. Clinical Decision Support : AI-powered clinical decision support systems can provide recommendations to healthcare providers regarding medication dosages, contraindications, and treatment plans. 4. Drug Formulation : AI can aid in the development of new drug formulations and delivery methods, potentially leading to more effective and personalized treatments. 5. Predictive Analytics : AI algorithms can predict patient admission rates and medication needs, allowing pharmacies to plan resources more efficiently.
CHALLENGES TO BE ADOPTION BY AI IN PHARMACY 1. Data Privacy and Security: Protecting patient information and maintaining data privacy is crucial. AI systems must adhere to strict security protocols to prevent unauthorized access. 2. Data Quality and Integration: AI relies on high-quality integrated data. Pharmacy data may be fragmented or inconsistent making it challenging to develop effective AI solutions. 3. Regulatory Compliance: Complying with healthcare regulations like HIPAA in the United States while using AI in pharmacy requires careful consideration to avoid legal issues. 4. Ethical Concerns: Ensuring that AI applications in pharmacy are used ethically especially regarding patient consent bias and fairness is essential. 5. Skill and Training: Pharmacists and staff may need training to understand and use AI tools effectively which can be a barrier to adoption. 6. Cost : Implementing AI systems can be expensive, and pharmacies, particularly smaller ones, may struggle to invest in these technologies.
ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE (AI) DRUG DISCOVERY Artificial intelligence (AI) plays a crucial role in drug discovery by accelerating and enhancing various aspects of the drug development process. Drug discovery takes a long time to test compounds against diseased cells. Finding compound which are biologically active and worth investigating requires even more analysis for speed up this screening process artificial Intelligence (AI) has recently started to gear-up its application in various sectors of the society with the pharmaceutical industry as a front-runner beneficiary. This review highlights the impactful use of AI in diverse areas of the pharmaceutical sectors viz., drug discovery and development, drug repurposing, improving pharmaceutical productivity, clinical trials, etc. To name a few, thus reducing the human workload as well as achieving targets in a short period.

TOOLS OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE Fig.1: Robot pharmacists Robot pharmacies: In a robot pharmacy, AI-driven robots can dispense medication, manage inventory, and assist pharmacists in filling prescriptions accurately and quickly. Robot pharmacies are automated healthcare facilities that use robotics and advanced technology to dispense medications and provide pharmacy services.
These pharmacies can offer several benefits, such as increased accuracy in filling prescriptions, 24/7 accessibility, and reduced wait times for customers. Robots in these pharmacies can count pills, package medications, and even assist with medication management for patients. fig.2: ERICA ROBOT ERICA ROBOT: Erica is a new robot created by Hiroshi Ishiguro, a professor at Osaka University in Japan. It was developed in collaboration with the Japan Science and Technology Agency, Kyoto University and the International Advanced Telecommunications Research Institute (ATR).
He speaks Japanese and has a mixture of European and Asian facial features. Like any normal person, he loves animated movies, wants to travel to South Asia, and wants to spend his life with someone he can talk to. The robot cannot walk on its own; but has developed the ability to understand and answer questions using human facial expressions, a robot nose, eyes, etc. has created. Tug Robots: Aethon TUG robots are designed to move autonomously in hospitals, distribute medicines, meals, samples, supplies, and carry heavy items such as linens and garbage. Comes in two configurations, ... fixed and support cart, as well as a swap base platform that can be used to transport the rack, rear legs and cart. While rigid trucks are used to transport drugs, sensitive materials and laboratories, exchange platforms are also used to: Vyas et al: Artificial Intelligence: A New Era in the pharmaceutical business Asia Magazine Drug April 2018 - 12 June 75 Transport information that can be loaded on different racks:
The TUG can carry different types of tools or racks, making it very useful and capable. Tug robots are commonly used in pharmacy settings to automate various tasks, such as medication dispensing and delivery. These robots are designed to navigate hospital or retail pharmacy environments autonomously, safely transporting medications and supplies to different locations within the facility. They help reduce human error, improve efficiency, and free up pharmacy staff to focus on more critical tasks. Fig.3: Tug Robots:
