Erythromycin Rapid Test Kit

This erythromycin rapid test kit is for the detection of tilmicosin and tylosin in milk, honey, and other food samples. The detection limit meets EU MRL requirements.

Erythromycin is used to treat a wide variety of bacterial infections. It may also be used to prevent certain bacterial infections. Erythromycin is known as a macrolide antibiotic. It works by stopping the growth of bacteria.This antibiotic treats or prevents only bacterial infections. It will not work for viral infections (such as common cold, flu).
