| Among the oldest
tools used to prepare drugs, the museum has a small collection of mortars
of different shapes and made of materials such as metal, stone, porcelain
and glass, as well as other devices which in their time were essential for
drug preparation: culture and drying ovens, old and modern stills, autoclaves,
leachers, ovens, pill presses, press filters, pill coaters, and centrifuges.
There is also a small but interesting collection of gas burners, once used
in laboratories all over the world.
The many glass containers and devices assembled -
balloon flasks, tubes, coolers, retorts and Woulf's bottles, once used
in the faculty laboratories - bear witness to the importance of experimental
sciences in the training of pharmacists.
