High-quality reference materials for precise residue analysis in food and environmental samples

Overview

Erythromycin is a macrolide antibiotic used to treat various bacterial infections, including respiratory tract infections, skin infections, chlamydia infections, pelvic inflammatory disease, and syphilis. It is available in multiple forms such as tablets, capsules, oral suspensions, and injections.

Our reference materials for Erythromycin are tested according to international quality requirements and meet the highest industrial standards. These materials are essential for laboratories conducting food and environmental analysis to ensure compliance with regulatory limits.

Uses

Erythromycin is primarily used to treat infections caused by bacteria such as Streptococcus, Staphylococcus, Haemophilus, and Corynebacterium. It is also used to improve delayed stomach emptying and is recommended for preventing eye infections in newborns.

Regulatory

Erythromycin is classified as a prescription-only medication in many countries, including Australia, the UK, and the US. It is on the World Health Organization's List of Essential Medicines and is widely recognized for its importance in treating bacterial infections.

Monitoring

Monitoring erythromycin residues in food and environmental samples is crucial for ensuring public health and safety. Our reference materials assist laboratories in accurately measuring erythromycin levels to comply with regulatory standards.

Health Impact

Erythromycin is generally safe but can cause side effects such as abdominal cramps, vomiting, and diarrhea. More serious side effects include Clostridium difficile colitis, liver problems, prolonged QT intervals, and allergic reactions.

Human Toxicity

While erythromycin is safe for those allergic to penicillin and generally safe during pregnancy, it may increase the risk of pyloric stenosis in newborns if used by the mother during the first two weeks of life.

Environmental Impact

Erythromycin can affect aquatic life and other wildlife if it enters water systems through improper disposal or agricultural runoff. Monitoring and controlling its levels in the environment are essential to minimize its impact.

Effects on Wildlife

Exposure to erythromycin can disrupt the microbial balance in aquatic environments, affecting fish and other aquatic organisms. Proper disposal and treatment of waste containing erythromycin are crucial to prevent environmental contamination.

Safety Measures

Proper handling and disposal of erythromycin are essential to minimize its impact on human health and the environment. Use protective equipment when handling the substance and follow regulatory guidelines for disposal.

Regulation

Erythromycin is regulated by various health and environmental agencies worldwide to ensure its safe use and disposal. Laboratories must comply with these regulations to minimize health risks and environmental impact.

Analytical Standards

Our erythromycin reference materials are designed to meet the highest standards of accuracy and reliability. They are essential for laboratories conducting residue analysis in food and environmental samples, ensuring compliance with regulatory limits.
