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.

Interactions between metronidazole and amoxicillin, metronidazole and its hydroxymetabolite, and amoxicillin and the hydroxymetabolite of metronidazole were investigated with checkerboard titrations in combination with accurately determined MICs and MBCs. Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans was used as the test organism. Synergism was found
