Adsorption of components of enzymatic synthesis of ampicillin on different hydrophobic resins.

This work compared the performance of three hydrophobic resins for the adsorption of ampicillin (AMP), D-phenylglycine (PG), D-phenylglycine methyl ester (PGME), and 6- aminopenicillanic acid (6-APA). The influence of pH on adsorption efficiencies was assessed in the range of 4.5-8.
