Nonisothermal kinetics using a microcomputer: a derivative approach to the prediction of the stability of penicillin formulations.
A procedure is described for the determination of the shelf-life of pharmaceutical preparations using nonisothermal kinetics. A BASIC computer program, which enables the data analysis to be undertaken rapidly and automatically on a microcomputer, is presented.
