Background Information
Streptomycin belongs to the group of the aminoglycoside antibiotics. Streptomycin is naturally produced by the actinobacterium Streptomyces griseus and its activity is directed against gram-negative bacteria and the tubercle bacillus. Therapeutically it is used in the case of streptococcal and enterococcal enteritis. Because of its side effects it is rarely used in the human treatment, but has an application in the veterinary area. After the treatment of mastitis in breeding animals, elevated streptomycin values were also measured in liver, kidney, muscle and milk. Another application of the antibiotic streptomycin under the brand name of Plantomycin is the treatment of the illness of fruit trees called fire blight. In order to reduce the transmission to humans, maximum permissible values were defined in the European Union. The German critical value for streptomycin in honey according to the RHmV regulation is at the moment 20 μg/kg. The sensitivity of this Streptomycin Food ELISA Test Kit is 1 ng/ml, based on the standard curve.
