Background: Background: Tetracycline antibiotics are commonly used for prevention and treatment of disease and for growth promotion in poultry farming. High- dose and/or prolonged use of tetracyclines in laying hens lead to accumulated residue in eggs and other chiken’s byproducts that might make them unsafe for human health.Methods: The purpse of this study was to systematically review of the publications on the factors that affect teteracyclin residue in egg. Scientific databases linculding Web of sciecne, PubMed, Medline, Scoupus, SID and Googlescholar were searched for keywords “tetracycline”, “residue” and “eggs” from 1991 to 2014.Findings: Factors such as withdrawal period, farm scale, housing system, geographic region, season and cooking method affect the quantitity of tetracyclin residue in egg. While, refrigerated storage has neglible effect on that.Conclusion: Implementation of good agricultural practices (GAPs) program, regular monitoring and strict supervision from food safety agancies can reduce the human exposure to tetracyclins through egg consumtion, Also, acknowledging public right by providing them with sufficient information on the possible distribiution of the contaminated eggs in the society will contribiute this process.Key Words: Tetracycline, Residue and Eggs
