GMP Antibiotic Veterinary Respiratory Medication Doxy Hydrochloride 10% Soluble Powder for Poultry and Livestock
Doxycycline is a bacteriostatic agent that acts by interfering with the bacterial protein synthesis of sensitive species.
Doxycycline is a semi-synthetic tetracycline derived from oxytetracycline. It acts on the subunit 30S of the bacterial ribosome, to which it is linked reversibly, blocking the union between aminoacyl-tRNA (transfer RNA) to the mRNA-ribosome complex, preventing the addition of new aminoacids into the growing peptide chain and thus
interfering with protein synthesis.
Doxycycline is active against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria.
