Novel method for determination of partition coefficients of penicillins and cephalosporins by high-pressure liquid chromatography. 1977

T Yamana, and A Tsuji, and E Miyamoto, and O Kubo

Newly defined lipophilic indexes, log k', of a series of penicillins and cephalosporins were rapidly and reliably determined by reversed-phase high-pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) on bonded octadecylsilane supports. The log k' values obtained from their retention times exhibited a linear relationship with methanol concentration (v/v%) in the mobile phase. The extrapolated log k' values to zero and those at 30% correlated well with the partition coefficients, log P, in 1-octanol-water and with Rm values from TLC. This HPLC technique provided some new log P and Rm values for highly ionizable beta-lactam antibiotics. The HPLC method for the determination of partition coefficients of drugs has some advantages and is a useful alternative for the determination of log P and Rm.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008722 Methods A series of steps taken in order to conduct research. Techniques,Methodological Studies,Methodological Study,Procedures,Studies, Methodological,Study, Methodological,Method,Procedure,Technique
D010406 Penicillins A group of antibiotics that contain 6-aminopenicillanic acid with a side chain attached to the 6-amino group. The penicillin nucleus is the chief structural requirement for biological activity. The side-chain structure determines many of the antibacterial and pharmacological characteristics. (Goodman and Gilman's The Pharmacological Basis of Therapeutics, 8th ed, p1065) Antibiotics, Penicillin,Penicillin,Penicillin Antibiotics
D002511 Cephalosporins A group of broad-spectrum antibiotics first isolated from the Mediterranean fungus ACREMONIUM. They contain the beta-lactam moiety thia-azabicyclo-octenecarboxylic acid also called 7-aminocephalosporanic acid.
