Tetracycline is an antibiotic used to treat a number of bacterial infections. It is commonly used to treat acne and rosacea. Historically it was important in reducing the number of deaths from cholera. A broad-spectrum antibiotic of the polyketide class, it is produced by the actinobacterial genus Streptomyces. It acts by inhibiting protein synthesis. It is first-line therapy for rocky mountain spotted fever, Lyme disease, Q fever, psittacosis and lymphogranuloma venereum, mycoplasma pneumoniae and to eradicate nasal carriage of meningococci. BioVision’s Tetracycline ELISA kit is a competitive ELISA assay for the quantitative measurement of Tetracycline in tissues, honey and urine. The density of color is proportional to the amount of tetracycline captured from the samples.
