The selection criteria were that a successful alternative antibiotic should be effective against European Foulbrood, it should degrade quickly and leave no residue in honey. This project identified six candidate antibiotics that were effective against the causative bacteria of European Foulbrood. Following analysis of these antibiotics, ampicillin and amoxicillin were selected as promising alternatives to oxytetracycline Analysis Electronic resource Notes "RIRDC project ; no.
