Description

Bacampicillin Hydrochloride is a semi-synthetic, broad-spectrum antibiotic belonging to the aminopenicillin class. It serves as a prodrug of ampicillin, offering enhanced oral bioavailability and stability, which is critical for effective pharmaceutical formulation. This compound is primarily utilized by manufacturers in the pharmaceutical industry for the production of antibacterial medications targeting a wide range of gram-positive and gram-negative infections.

Application

• Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient (API): Core component in the manufacture of oral antibiotic formulations.
• Pharmaceutical Intermediates: Used in the synthesis of more complex antibiotic drug substances.
• Veterinary Medicine: Formulated into treatments for bacterial infections in animals.
• Clinical Research: Serves as a reference standard in pharmacokinetic and microbiological studies.
• Drug Delivery Systems: Explored in prodrug research for improving drug solubility and absorption.

Quality Control

Our Bacampicillin Hydrochloride is manufactured under strict quality systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing to ensure it meets high-purity standards suitable for pharmaceutical applications. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing specifications such as assay, impurity profile, and residual solvents is provided with every shipment to guarantee traceability and compliance.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to prevent moisture absorption, which can compromise stability and potency.
