Amoxicilin tablet

Formulation :

Each tablet contains 500 mg or 875 mg amoxicillin as the trihydrate. Each film-coated, capsule-
shaped, pink tablet is debossed with AMOXIL centered over 500 or 875, respectively. The 875-
mg tablet is scored on the reverse side.

Inactive ingredients: Colloidal silicon dioxide, crospovidone, FD&C Red No. 30 aluminum
lake, hypromellose, magnesium stearate, microcrystalline cellulose, polyethylene glycol,
sodium starch glycolate, and titanium dioxide.

Synthesis amoxicillin :

The immobilized Penicillin G acylase (PGA, EC 3.5.1.11) from Escherichia coli imported
material (Germany): Enzyme immobilization: Glyoxyl-agarose gel was prepared as reported by
Guisan [21]. Penicillin acylase was immobilized in glyoxyl-agarose gel beads, based on the
procedure described by Alvaro et al. [22], but using phenylacetic acid (PAA) instead of
penicillinG sulfoxide as the protecting agent during immobilisation; time of immobilization was
extended to 20 h, determined as the optimum for biocatalyst stability [23]. The glyoxyl-agarose
immobilized penicillin acylase was stored as a wet gel at 5 C. No enzyme inactivation or
leakage has been detected during prolonged storage. Hydroxyphenylglycine methyl ester
(HPGM), 6-aminopeicillanic acid (6-APA) and Amoxicillin trihidrate were obtained from the
Zakariaye Razi Pharmaceutical Company (Iran). All other chemicals were of laboratory grade
prepared from different commercial suppliers. All materials were of pure analytical grade.

Magnesium Stearate (stearic acid): Used as an active ingredient in medicine tablets.
