Application Notes

Epichlortetracycline is a degradation product of chlorotetracycline formed by acid-catalysed isomerisation of the dimethylamino group at C4. Epichlortetracycline exhibits little antibiotic activity but its abundance is indicative of poor storage and handling of chlortetracycline.
