Tetracyclines (TC, OTC, CTC & DOX) Rapid Test Kit for Honey Screening

Not just a rapid test supplier — a long-term, globally proven food safety partner.

Fast screening for tetracycline-class antibiotic residues, including Tetracycline (TC), Oxytetracycline (OTC), Chlortetracycline (CTC) and Doxycycline (DOX), in honey and related apicultural products.

The Tetracyclines Rapid Test Kit provides a fast, simple and reliable front-end screening solution for honey processors, beekeeping operations, exporters, laboratories, distributors, inspection authorities and quality control teams seeking to identify antibiotic residue risks before laboratory confirmation, shipment or market release.

Suitable for honey quality control, export risk control, supplier verification, market surveillance and food safety monitoring applications.

Product Principle & Result Interpretation

This rapid test kit is based on competitive lateral flow immunochromatographic assay technology and is designed for rapid qualitative screening of tetracycline-class residues in honey matrices.

Results can be interpreted visually for routine front-end screening. Optional quantitative analysis is available for users requiring objective result interpretation, numerical result management, digital records and traceable QC workflow management.

The test is suitable for high-frequency screening in honey processing, export preparation, market inspection and laboratory pre-screening applications.

Fast • Simple • Reliable

Rapid Results in 3–5 Minutes

Support immediate screening decisions and rapid identification of suspicious batches without waiting for lengthy laboratory turnaround times.

Visual Screening, No Instrument Required

Simple operation suitable for honey processors, laboratories and routine high-volume screening programs.

Optional Quantitative Analysis

Laboratory-Verified Performance

Supported by CMA / CATL / CNAS certified analytical laboratories with LC-MS/MS, GC-MS/MS and real-matrix validation capability.

Target Compounds Covered

This rapid test kit is designed for screening major tetracycline-class antibiotic residues, including:

• Tetracycline (TC)

• Oxytetracycline (OTC)

• Chlortetracycline (CTC)

• Doxycycline (DOX)

These compounds are among the most frequently monitored antibiotic residues in honey export programs and international trade monitoring schemes.

Why Screen for Tetracycline Residues in Honey?

Tetracycline-class antibiotics are among the most frequently monitored veterinary drug residues in honey safety programs and international honey trade.

Many honey importers, food brands and regulatory authorities include tetracycline residues in routine testing programs as part of export compliance and supplier qualification requirements.

Honey exporters, processors, laboratories and inspection authorities routinely screen for tetracycline residues to support:

• Veterinary drug residue monitoring

• Honey export compliance

• Supplier verification

• Incoming raw material inspection

• Honey processing quality control

• Buyer testing program compliance

• Market surveillance programs

• Regulatory compliance monitoring

• Shipment risk control

• Brand reputation protection

The detection of tetracycline residues after shipment, buyer inspection or market release may result in shipment rejection, buyer claims, delayed payments, regulatory action and long-term damage to supplier credibility.

Front-end rapid screening helps identify high-risk batches earlier and supports faster risk-control decisions before products enter packaging, shipment or international trade channels.
