Spectrophotometric Determination of Amoxicillin, Ampicillin, Cefalexin and Cefadroxil in Pharmaceutical Formulations, Biological Fluids and Spiked Water Samples
Abstract
AbstractAmoxicillin, ampicillin, cefalexin and cefadroxil are the most extensively used beta-lactam antibiotics due to their broad spectrum of action and low cost. The quality of the pharmaceutical formulations of these drugs being marketed needs to be ensured to achieve a better remedial effect and a lower toxicity. The widespread exploitation of antibiotics sometimes leads to their presence in residues in body fluids and water bodies, which is potentially toxic and dangerous for human...
