Ampicillin Trihydrate

Ampicillin trihydrate is the trihydrate salt form of ampicillin, a beta-lactam antibiotic with a penicillanic acid structure used to treat bacterial infections. It falls under HTS 2941.10.10.00 as it is specifically the ampicillin salt mentioned in the heading for penicillins and their derivatives. This chemically defined organic compound is imported in bulk powder form for pharmaceutical manufacturing.

Ampicillin Sodium Salt

Ampicillin sodium is the sodium salt derivative of ampicillin, a semisynthetic penicillin antibiotic effective against gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. Classified under HTS 2941.10.10.00 per chapter notes for salts of organic compounds with penicillanic acid structure. Typically imported as sterile powder for injectable formulations.

Pharmaceutical Grade Ampicillin Base

High-purity ampicillin free base (anhydrous form) used as intermediate for salt production in antibiotic manufacturing. Meets HTS 2941.10.10.00 as the core penicillin compound with penicillanic acid structure, whether as base or salt per subheading. Supplied as micronized powder for API synthesis.

Sterile Ampicillin for Injection USP

Sterile grade ampicillin (typically trihydrate) meeting USP monograph for parenteral administration, classified as bulk API under HTS 2941.10.10.00. This chemically defined penicillin derivative is imported for hospital compounding and manufacturing of combination injectables like with sulbactam.

Ampicillin Monohydrate EP Grade

European Pharmacopoeia grade ampicillin monohydrate, a hydrated salt form of the penicillin antibiotic for global pharma supply chains. Directly covered by HTS 2941.10.10.00 for ampicillin and salts as separate chemically defined compounds per chapter note (a).

Micronized Ampicillin Powder

Ampicillin specially processed to micronized particle size (D90 <10μm) for improved bioavailability in oral suspensions. Remains under HTS 2941.10.10.00 as physical form doesn't change chemical classification of the penicillin salt.
