Abstract

A simple, accurate, and rapid method for the quantitative determination of penicillin is proposed. The method is based on the formation of a blue penicillin-Azure-C ion-pair that can be extracted into chloroform in phosphate-citric acid buffer. The molar absorptivities for sodium penicillin G and potassium penicillin V at 635 nm were 5.46 � 103 and 2.19 � 104 l/mol/cm, respectively. Beer's law was valid over the concentration range of 4-80 μg ml for sodium penicillin G and 3-55 μg ml for potassium penicillin V. Maximum absorbance was obtained almost instantaneously and was stable for several days. The method was successfully applied to pharmaceutical preparations. © 1985.
