Oxytetracycline hydrochloride

Oxytetracycline hydrochloride (CAS 2058-46-0), commonly referred to as OTC, is a broad-spectrum tetracycline antibiotic salt used across pharmaceutical, veterinary, and agricultural markets.

It functions as an antimicrobial active ingredient in finished drug formulations and as a bacteriostatic agent in feed and crop protection applications for global distribution.

In human and veterinary pharmaceuticals, it is formulated into oral tablets, injectable solutions, and topical preparations targeting a range of bacterial infections in both companion and livestock animals.

Aquaculture producers incorporate it into medicated feeds to control bacterial disease outbreaks in fish farming operations. In crop protection, it is applied to control fire blight and other bacterial diseases.

This is particularly common in fruit orchards where regulatory frameworks permit agricultural antibiotic use. Research and biotech laboratories source it as a reference standard and selection agent.

Oxytetracycline hydrochloride is supplied as a yellow crystalline powder. Standard grades include USP, BP, and Ph. Eur. for pharmaceutical applications and industrial manufacturing.

Feed-grade and technical-grade material are also available for agricultural use. Packaging ranges from small quantities for laboratory and QC purposes to bulk quantities suited for feed manufacturing.
