Chloramphenicol is an antibiotic used to treat a wide range of infections within bee colonies. However, in humans it can lead to chloramphenicol induced aplastic anaemia. This has led to the use of chloramphenicol being restricted within the European Union since 1994 for the treatment of animals used for food production.
The Chloramphenicol FAST ELISA test kit offers excellent Limits of Detection and specific detection of Chloramphenicol and metabolites.
