High-purity reference materials for accurate residue analysis in food and environmental samples.

Overview

Oxytetracycline hydrochloride is a broad-spectrum tetracycline antibiotic, the second of its group to be discovered. It works by interfering with the ability of bacteria to produce essential proteins, thus stopping the spread of infection.

Uses

Oxytetracycline is used to treat infections caused by Chlamydia, Mycoplasma, and Rickettsia. It is also effective against acne, chronic bronchitis, and other bacterial infections when penicillins and macrolides cannot be used.

Regulatory

Oxytetracycline is on the World Health Organization's List of Essential Medicines and is available by prescription only. It is used in both human and veterinary medicine under strict regulatory guidelines.

Monitoring

Laboratories use high-purity reference materials, such as those provided by HPC Standards GmbH, to ensure accurate monitoring of oxytetracycline residues in food and environmental samples.

Health Impact

Human Toxicity

Side effects of oxytetracycline can include gastrointestinal issues and photosensitive allergic reactions. It can also affect calcium-rich organs, although this is rare. It is not recommended for use in pregnant or lactating women and children under twelve.

Environmental Impact

Effects on Wildlife

Oxytetracycline is used in livestock feed and can be deposited in manure, affecting the environment. Research indicates that its breakdown in manure slows with increased saturation, affecting bacteria and antimicrobial resistance.

Safety Measures

Proper handling and disposal of oxytetracycline are essential to minimize environmental impact. Laboratories must adhere to safety protocols when using reference materials for residue analysis.

Regulation

Oxytetracycline is regulated under various international guidelines to ensure its safe use in both human and veterinary medicine. Compliance with these regulations is critical for maintaining public health and environmental safety.
