CAP (Chloramphenicol)


Rapid CDIATM CAP kits are intended for quanlitative analysis of chloramphenicol in feed, fish, eggs, honey, meat, milk, milk powder, serum and aquatic product.


Chloramphenicol is a broad spectrum antibiotic which is frequently employed in animal production for its excellent antibacterial and pharmacokinetic properties. However, in humans it leads to hematotoxic side effects, in particular chloramphenicol-induced aplastic anaemia for which a dosage-effect relationship has not yet been established. This has led to a prohibition of chloramphenicol for the treatment of animals used for food production.
