title: Spectrophotometric determination of ampicillin and its dosage forms.
abstract: A new spectrophotometric procedure is described for the determination of ampicillin. The method is based on the reaction of ampicillin with acetylacetone-formaldehyde reagent to give a yellow coloured product having lambda max at 400 nm. A variety of pharmaceutical dosage forms containing ampicillin are successfully analysed by the proposed procedure.
