The name "penicillin" can either refer to several variants of penicillin available, or to the group of antibiotics derived from the penicillins.

Ampicillin has in vitro activity against gram-positive and gram-negative aerobic and anaerobic bacteria.

The bactericidal activity of

Ampicillin results from the inhibition of cell wall synthesis and is mediated through Ampicillin binding to penicillin binding proteins (PBPs).

Ampicillin is stable against hydrolysis by a variety of beta-lactamases, including penicillinases, and cephalosporinases and extended spectrum beta-lactamases.
