About Tetracyclines (oxytetracycline, chlortetracycline, doxycycline)
- What they are: broad-spectrum antibiotics heavily used in SA cattle, pigs, and poultry.
- Food safety: EU/Codex MRL in milk is 100 µg/kg; higher limits apply to meat/muscle. Carry-over from treated animals causes batch rejection.
- Starter cultures: tetracyclines inhibit the lactic-acid bacteria used in fermented dairy products.
- Typical samples: raw milk, meat/muscle tissue, kidney (highest residue load), eggs.
- Who cares in SA: dairy processors, abattoirs (meat residue monitoring), poultry producers.

Tetracyclines are broad-spectrum antibiotics whose general usefulness has been reduced with the onset of antibiotic resistance. Despite this, they remain the treatment of choice for some specific indications, especially in veterinary practice. MRLs of tetracyclines have been set to 100ppb in EU, China, and Codex Standards.
