Description

Flavomycin is a well-characterized phosphoglycolipid antibiotic complex, primarily composed of bambermycin, with the CAS registry number 11015-37-5. It serves as a highly effective growth promoter and performance enhancer in animal nutrition by modulating the gut microbiome to improve feed efficiency. This product is essential for feed manufacturers and livestock producers in the poultry, swine, and cattle industries seeking to optimize animal health and production economics.

Application

• Animal Feed Additive: Primary use as a growth-promoting antibiotic (GPA) in poultry, swine, and cattle feed to enhance weight gain and feed conversion ratio (FCR).
• Gut Health Modulator: Selectively inhibits Gram-positive bacteria in the animal intestine, promoting a favorable microbial balance and nutrient absorption.
• Coccidiostat Adjuvant: Used in combination with ionophore anticoccidials to provide broader spectrum enteric health management in poultry.
• Agricultural Research: Serves as a reference standard and active ingredient in veterinary and zootechnical research studies.
• Feed Mill Premix: Incorporated into vitamin-mineral premixes and base mixes for uniform distribution in complete feed formulations.
