Applications & Uses

Uses

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