The CDIATM Oxytetracycline Colloidal Gold Test Cassette (Aquatic Products) is a lateral flow immunoassay for the detection of oxytetracycline in aquatic products.
Oxytetracycline antigen is coated on the test region of the nitrocellulose membrane of the strips, and oxytetracycline antibody is labeled with colloid gold. During a test, the colloid gold labeled antibody coated in the strip move forward along the membrane, and a red line will show up when the antibody gathers with the antigen in the test line; if oxytetracycline in the sample is over the detection limit, line T is blank; on the other wise, if oxytetracycline in the sample is less than the detection limit, line T is red.
Oxytetracycline was the second of the broad-spectrum tetracycline group of antibiotics to be discovered. It is active against a wide variety of bacteria.
