Biological Activity

[Description]:

Ampicillin-d5 (D-(-)-α-Aminobenzylpenicillin-d5) is the deuterium labeled Ampicillin. Ampicillin is a broad-spectrum beta-lactam antibiotic against a variety of gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria[1][2][3].

[In Vitro]

Stable heavy isotopes of hydrogen, carbon, and other elements have been incorporated into drug molecules, largely as tracers for quantitation during the drug development process. Deuteration has gained attention because of its potential to affect the pharmacokinetic and metabolic profiles of drugs[1].
