A composition and method which provides a compound of the formula I: <IMAGE> (I) wherein either R1 is ethyl or vinyl. n is an integer from 2 to 5 and each of R2 and R3 is alkyl of 1 to 10 carbon atoms. Also provided is a hypochlorite scavenger in solution with the formula I compound which stabilizes the compound against oxidation by sodium hypochlorite. A preferred solution contains the compound of formula I wherein R1 is vinyl, R2 and R3 are ethyl as a salt of hydrogen fumarate i.e. tiamulin hydrogen fumarate. The solution is added to drinking water which is fed to farm animals as treatment for mycoplasma infection. |
