  /AB  ABSTRACT: Tetracyclines used in veterinary therapy invariably will find 
      their way as parent compound and degradation products to the agricultural 
      field. Major degradation products formed due to the limited stability of 
      parent tetracyclines (tetracycline, chlortetracycline, and 
      oxytetracycline) in aqueous solution were theoretically identified at 
      various environmental conditions, such as pH, presence of chelating 
      metals, and light. Their potency was assessed on sludge bacteria, 
      tetracycline-sensitive soil bacteria, and tetracycline-resistant strains. 
      Several of the degradation products had potency at the same concentration 
      level as tetracycline, chlortetracycline, and oxytetracycline on both the 
      sludge and the tetracycline-sensitive soil bacteria. Further, both 
      5a,6-anhydrotetracycline and 5a,6-anhydrochlortetracycline had potency on 
      tetracycline-resistant bacteria supporting a mode of action different 
      from that of the parent compounds.
