Separation and Purification of Pharmaceuticals and Antibiotics [Table IX-1-1] Principal Antibiotics Penicillin-G (benzylpenicillin), Oxacillin, Chlox- 1. Antibiotics acillin, Dichloxacillin, Nafcillin, Methicillin, (1) Outline Amoxicillin, Ampicillin, Ticarcillin, Piperacillin, Penicillins aspoxicillin, Antibiotics are "chemical substances produced by microorganisms Ciclacillin, Sulbenicillin, Talampicillin, which, in minute quantities, inhibit or suppress the proliferation of other Bacampicillin, Pivmecillinam, lenampicillin, microorganisms". This is defined in 1942 by Selman Abraham Waksman β-Lactams Phenethicillin, Carbenicillin etc, in the USA. Antibiotics were developed in Britain following the discovery Cephalosporin C of Penicillin in 1929 by Alexander Fleming: He found that Blue mold, Cefazolin, Cefatrizine, Cefadroxil, Cefalexin, Cephalosporins Cefaloglycin, Cefalothin, Cefaloridine, Cefoxitin, Penicillium, dissolves Staphylococcus staphylococci and inhibits its Cefotaxime, Cefoperazone, Ceftizoxime, Cefmet- growth and he named the extract from Penicillium as Penicillin. Many azole, Cefradine, Cefroxadine etc. new antibiotics have been found since 1940’s, and there are more than Other β-lactams 1,500 antibiotics. Principal ones are listed in Table IX-1-1. Kanamycins Amikacin, Kanamycin, Dibekacin Most of these antibiotics are manufactured by fermentation or by Gentamycins, Gentamicin, Micronomicin semi-synthesis that combines fermentation and organic synthesis, though Sisomycins chloramphenicol is by synthesis. Fermentation is carried out by Acti- Streptomycins Streptomycin Aminoglycosides nomycetes, mold (hyphomycetes) or bacteria in culture media with glu- Spectinomycins Spectinomycin cose, sucrose, lactose, starch or dextrin as carbon source, with nitrate, Fradiomycins Fradiomycin, ammonium salt, corn steep liquor, peptone, meat extract or yeast extract Astromicins Astromicin as nitrogen source and with a little amount of inorganic salts. Erythromycin, Oleandomycin, Carbomycin, Penicillin-type antibiotics are manufactured by semi-synthesis, i.e.
