What can make the absorbance of chloramphenicol in distilled water to increase with time in the presence of a photocatalyst?

14 December 2022 1 7K Report

I observed an increment in the absorbance of chloramphenicol using a UV spectrophotometer.

Gentle Akinnuoye Likely formation of degradation products of chloramphenicol. You can expect some phenolic or quinonic products which will absorbe stronger in the UV-range.
