Figures & data

Figure 1 Evidence of lincomycin breakdown products when 0.6 mg/mL lincomycin hydrochloride was prepared in 0.1 M HCl and stored at 60°C for 432 hours.

Notes: The lincomycin peak occurred at 11.719 minutes and the peak at 11.011 minutes is lincomycin B. The benzyl alcohol peak occurred at 17.945 minutes.
