Product Overview
Spiramycin is a 16-membered macrolide antibiotic produced by Streptomyces ambofaciens. It is widely used in veterinary medicine, particularly for respiratory and enteric infections in livestock and poultry.
Spiramycin inhibits bacterial protein synthesis by binding to the 50S ribosomal subunit. It achieves high tissue concentrations, especially in the respiratory tract, making it effective for respiratory pathogens including Mycoplasma spp.
