초록

The hydrolysis of metampicillin to ampicillin was investigated using high perofrmance liquid chromatography. We developed the simultaneous determination of metampicillin and ampicilin using a Zorbox CN column and 5% acetonitrile and 8% methanol in 0.02 M phosphate buffer (pH 7.0) as mobile phase. Matampicillin was hdyrolyzed to ampicillin with half life of 41.5 min at physiological pH and temperature. In acdic pH, metampicillin was rapidly hydrolyzed to ampicillin within a chromatogrphic separation.
