Abstract
Phenothiazine exposed to white light or UV radiation undergoes a variety of reactions that result in the degradation of the parental compound and the formation of new species. Chlorpromazine exposed to the 266 nm laser beam of given energy levels yielded species derived from it, whose number increased with the exposure duration. At distinct time intervals the irradiation products were evaluated by spectrophotometry between 200-1500 nm, Thin Layer Chromatography, and for antimicrobial activity of Chlorpromazine against different test organisms such as Staphylococcus aureus.
