✦ Synopsis


This report deals with spectrophotometric determination of cefoxitin from intact antibiotics or from its acid induced degradation product by means of their reaction with ninhydrin in a strong sulphmic acid medium. To obtain the calibration graphs four methods were used: absorbance of reacted cefoxitin against a reagent blank as an analytical signal, first-derivative signal of absorbance against a water blank as an analytical signal, first-derivative signal of absorbance against a reagent blank as an analytical signal and the H-Point Standard Additions Method (HPSAM) by using absorbance increment values as analytical signals. The HPSAM is applied to the determination of cefoxitin in the presence of its acid-degraded product. Ninhydrin-cefoxitin determination is compared with reversed-phase HPLC determination and with the iodometric method.

## Abstract This paper contrasts the solutions given by the geometrical optics‐uniform theory of diffraction (GO‐UTD) and the physical optics‐stationary phase (PO‐SPM) methods when they are applied to the problem of analysis of on‐board antennas. Results for both approximations are given for antenn
