What Is Ampicillin Sodium Powder?

 

Ampicillin Sodium Powder is the water-soluble sodium salt of ampicillin, a semi-synthetic broad-spectrum aminopenicillin belonging to the β-lactam class of antibiotics. It is widely used in veterinary medicine for the treatment of bacterial infections in horses, livestock, poultry and companion animals, with activity against gram-positive bacteria and selected gram-negative bacteria including E. coli, Salmonella, Pasteurella and Proteus species.

 

As the sodium salt, it is freely soluble in water, making it particularly suitable for injectable and reconstitutable formulations. Ampicillin is sensitive to penicillinase and is therefore ineffective against β-lactamase-producing strains such as penicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus; it is also inactive against Pseudomonas aeruginosa. It is frequently combined with sulbactam (a β-lactamase inhibitor) to extend its spectrum.

 

How Does Ampicillin Sodium Powder Work?

 

Ampicillin Sodium Powder exerts its bactericidal effect by binding to penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs) on the bacterial cytoplasmic membrane. This inhibits the transpeptidation reaction in peptidoglycan synthesis, a critical step in bacterial cell wall formation, leading to weakened cell walls and eventual bacterial lysis and death.

 

Its broad-spectrum bactericidal activity and well-characterized β-lactam mechanism make Ampicillin Sodium Powder a valuable reference compound for veterinary antimicrobial research and injectable formulation development. Like all aminopenicillins, it is more active against gram-negative organisms than natural penicillins but remains susceptible to β-lactamase degradation.

 

What Are the Applications of Ampicillin Sodium Powder?

 

  • Equine Infections: Used in formulation research for respiratory tract infections (pneumonia, strangles caused by Streptococcus equi) and skin/soft tissue infections (abscesses, wounds) in horses.
  • Livestock & Poultry: Evaluated for respiratory, urogenital and digestive tract infections caused by susceptible gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria in cattle, sheep, pigs and poultry.
  • Companion Animals: Studied for injectable therapy of respiratory, skin, gastrointestinal and bone infections in dogs and cats (oral absorption of ampicillin is poor).
  • Poultry-Specific: Investigated for omphalitis (navel infection) and clostridial infections such as necrotic enteritis in chickens.
  • Combination Research: Used in β-lactamase inhibitor combination studies (e.g., ampicillin-sulbactam) to extend spectrum against enzyme-producing strains.

How Is Ampicillin Sodium Powder Manufactured?

 

Ampicillin Sodium Powder is manufactured semi-synthetically from 6-aminopenicillanic acid (6-APA) through acylation with D-phenylglycine derivatives, followed by sodium salt formation, purification and crystallization under sterile conditions.

 

Raw Material QC → 6-APA Starting Material → Acylation (D-phenylglycine coupling) → Sodium Salt Formation → Sterile Purification → Crystallization → Vacuum Drying → Final QC → Aseptic Packaging

 

HDM BIO controls key acylation, salt-formation, purification and crystallization parameters to maintain consistent purity, potency and batch quality.

 

Quality Specifications

What Quality Control Tests Are Performed for Ampicillin Sodium Powder?

 

Each batch undergoes multi-step quality control before release to verify identity, potency, purity and sterility.

 

Raw Material QC → In-Process Control → Microbiological Potency Assay → HPLC Assay → IR Identity Verification → Related Substances (HPLC) → Loss on Drying → Heavy Metals → Residue on Ignition → pH Test → Sterility Test → Final Batch Release

 

Key evaluations include microbiological potency assay (845–988 μg/mg), HPLC active content assay, infrared (IR) identification, related substances analysis, loss on drying, heavy metal limits, residue on ignition, pH verification and sterility testing for injectable-grade material. Every commercial batch is supported by a batch-specific COA and relevant analytical documentation for incoming QC and supplier qualification.

 

What Factors Affect Ampicillin Sodium Powder Bulk Price?

 

Ampicillin Sodium Powder bulk pricing is driven by several key factors:

  • Starting Material Costs: 6-APA (6-aminopenicillanic acid) availability and pricing directly influence semi-synthetic manufacturing expenses.
  • Potency & Sterile Grade: Higher potency specifications and sterile injectable-grade production cost more than non-sterile material.
  • Regulatory Compliance & Certification: GMP-standard sterile API batches with consistent COA and complete export documentation demand a higher price.
  • Order Volume: Large-scale industrial or wholesale contracts receive steeper per-kilogram discounts than small-batch specialty orders.
  • Logistics & Geography: Shipping distance, cold-chain/light-protection requirements and customs compliance add to the landed cost.
