Abstract
⺠We evaluated the ability of photocatalysis to improve tetracycline biodegradability. ⺠By-products were less toxic than tetracycline but were not biodegradable. ⺠By-product structures elucidated using LC-MS/MS were similar to that of tetracycline. ⺠In the photocatalytic process, the tetracycline aromatic ring was not opened. ⺠The main mechanism reaction was an addition of OH on the reactive sites.
