Robust Analysis of Amoxicillin, Antibiotic with HPLC
The USP Assay Monograph Method for Amoxicillin often yields poor Peak shapes and low Method reproducibility with L1 Columns based on ordinary Silica. In contrast, the Figures shown here illustrate the high degree of reproducibility obtained from use of the Cogent Bidentate C18 L1 Column, following the USP Assay Method.
Each figure shows a five run overlay of consecutive runs. Figure A shows the data obtained using the analyte concentration specified by the USP Assay Method. Figure B shows a lower concentration which is less likely to result in Column overload.
