Metacycline

A semi-synthetic antibiotic of the tetracycline family, obtained from oxytetracycline in the early 1960s: it blocks bacterial protein synthesis and is active against a broad spectrum of bacteria. This family brings together the active ingredient.

Did you know?It comes from a small change to oxytetracycline: a molecule of water is removed from the hydroxyl group at position 6, which thus becomes a methylene group outside the ring.
