Ampicillin belongs to the beta lactam group of antibiotics. It is semi synthetic penicillin. It acts against, both the gram positive and gram negative bacteria. So it is some times called as broad spectrum antibiotic. It has got bactericidal action.
Aminopenicillins such as ampicillin and amoxicillin have an extended spectrum of action compared with the natural penicillins
The pGlo plasmid contains an ampicillin resistance gene. This gene encodes an enzyme, β lactimase, which enzymatically degrades ampicillin. Therefore, bacteria that take up the plasmid (transformants) become resistant to ampicillin.
Half life of ampicillin is 1 hour.

Ampicillin is in a class of medications called antibiotics. Ampicillin destroys the bacterial cells that cause many illnesses. Antibiotics are also notorious for killing the good and bad bacteria.
Amoxicillin is made of amoxicillin. It is an antibiotic similar to penicillin.
Ampicillin is synthesized through a series of chemical reactions starting from a compound called 6-APA (6-aminopenicillanic acid). This compound is modified through acylation, sulfonation, and oxidation steps to produce ampicillin. The final product is then purified and isolated for use as an antibiotic.
