It may also be used in analytical methods for detecting enrofloxacin residues in food products, ensuring compliance with safety regulations.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Enrofloxacin hydrochloride is a fluoroquinolone antibiotic with broad-spectrum activity, which kills bacteria by blocking DNA gyrase and type IV topoisomerase interaction with DNA. This antibiotic belongs to the fluoroquinolone group, specifically the 6-fluoro-7-piperazinyl-4-quinolones. Enrofloxacin hydrochloride is effective against both Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria. It is commonly used in veterinary medicine. Enrofloxacin HCl exhibits better water solubility than enrofloxacin.
