• Description: 6-Epidoxycycline hydrochloride is a synthetic antibiotic that is prepared by the condensation of divinylbenzene and 6-aminopenicillanic acid. It has been found to have good antibacterial activity against Gram-positive bacteria. 6-Epidoxycycline hydrochloride has also been shown to be active against Gram-negative bacteria, but not as potent as other antibiotics in this class. The compound has been found to be stable in plasma and urine samples, but can react with acetonitrile. This reaction can lead to impurities that interfere with the analysis of the sample by chromatography. The compound has not been well studied for its side effects or toxicology, but it is thought to have similar effects to other members of this class of antibiotics.
