Summary

A rapid fluorimetric method employing the complexes of Al3+ with tetracycline (TC) and anhydrotetracycline (ATC) has been used for the measurement of the concentrations of TC and ATC in about 10−7–10−6 mol/l. The assay offers simplicity and rapidly compared with other methods. The recoveries in the determination of synthetic samples are in the range of 95–103% for TC and 101–120% for ATC. Several determinations of TC and ATC in serum and urine have been carried out with satisfactory results.
