General description

Ampicillin trihydrate is a stable hydrated form of ampicillin.
Chemical structure: ß-lactam

Application

Ampicillin trihydrate has been used as reference standard for determining the residual solvents and its effect on ampicillin trihydrate crystal structure using GC, X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR).
Commission Regulation (EU) No 37/2010 of 22 December 2009 on pharmacologically active substances and their classification regarding maximum residue limits in foodstuffs of animal origin
Refer to the product′s Certificate of Analysis for more information on a suitable instrument technique. Contact Technical Service for further support.

Biochem/physiol Actions

A β-lactam antibiotic with an amino group side chain attached to the penicillin structure. Penicillin derivative that inhibits bacterial cell-wall synthesis (peptidoglycan cross-linking) by inactivating transpeptidases on the inner surface of the bacterial cell membrane. Bactericidal only to growing Escherichia coli . Mode of resistance: Cleavage of β-lactam ring of ampicillin by β-lactamase. Antimicrobial spectrum: Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria.

Packaging

250 mg

The synthesis of two groups of structure hybrids comprising basically the antipyrine moiety attached to either polysubstituted thiazole or 2,5-disubstituted-1,3,4-thiadiazole counterparts through various linkages is described. Twelve out of the newly synthesized compounds were evaluated for their anti-inflammatory activity using

The azole pharmacophore is still considered a viable lead structure for the synthesis of more efficacious and broad spectrum antimicrobial agents. Potential antibacterial and antifungal activities are encountered with some tetrazoles. Therefore, this study presents the synthesis and antimicrobial evaluation
