TL;DR: In this article, the isolation and identification of a cathodic degradation product from cephradine after acidic hydrolysis in presence of 1% formaldehyde is reported, and the electroactivity of an anodic degradation products is described.
Abstract: The isolation and identification of a cathodic degradation product from cephradine after acidic hydrolysis in presence of 1% formaldehyde is reported. Also, the electroactivity of an anodic degradation product is described. However, this product has not been identified. Each electroactive product exhibits a diffusion-controlled polarographic wave and their respectives limiting currents show a linear dependence with the cephradine concentration. These characteristics are applied for analytical pur poses. Synthetic samples exhibit 99.4 and 100.4% recoveries for the cathodic and anodic product respectively.
