EuroProxima Erythromycin
-
A competitive enzyme immunoassay for quantitative analysis of dimetridazole in various matrices.
General information:
Erythromycin is an antibiotic with a broad-spectrum activity, which belongs to the group of macrolides. Maximum Residue Limits (MRLs) for erythromycin for all food producing species are established in Europe: for tissue at 200 ppb, milk at 40 ppb and eggs at 150 ppb. The screening for tylosin and erythromycin is an important tool for control in the honey industry. The use of antibiotics in apiculture is forbidden. Therefore, no MRLs have been set for honey. Nevertheless, Recommended Concentrations (RCs) have been published by the European Union Reference Laboratories. For erythromycin the RC is 20 ppb.
The Erythromycin ELISA is a competitive enzyme immunoassay based on antibodies directed against erythromycin.
