Application
Metronidazole-OH may be used as a reference standard for the determination of the antibiotic, metronidazole-OH in water samples and meat matrices using ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography coupled to quadrupole-linear ion trap tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-Qtrap-MS/MS) and ultra-performance liquid chromatography (UPLC) coupled to time of flight mass spectrometry (TOF).
Refer to the product′s Certificate of Analysis for more information on a suitable instrument technique. Contact Technical Service for further support.
General description
Metronidazole-OH is a genotoxic, carcinogenic and mutagenic drug, belonging to the class of nitroimidazoles, used as a broad spectrum veterinary drug for the treatment and prevention of certain bacterial and protozoal diseases in farm animals.
