Description

· High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) Method for Analysis of Azithromycin .

Azithromycin is an antibiotic with the chemical formula C 38 H 72 N 2 O 12 . It is used in the treatment of various bacterial infections including but not limited to pneumonia, strep throat, and STI.  As a medication, it is available in a variety of forms: tablets, capsules, injections, and solutions. It is on the WHOs list of essential medicines and is classified as critically important.

In reversed-phase HPLC, it generally exhibits significant tailing.  The tailing can be substantially reduced by using a mixed-mode Primesep 200 column with a simple MS-compatible mobile phase of water, acetonitrile (ACN) and ammonium formate (AmFm) buffer.
