Description

Lasalocid is a polyether ionophore antibiotic widely recognized for its potent coccidiostatic and growth-promoting properties in veterinary medicine. Its primary commercial value lies in its effectiveness against a broad spectrum of coccidial parasites, enhancing feed efficiency and animal health in livestock production. This makes it a critical component for manufacturers of premixes and medicated feeds targeting the poultry, cattle, and swine industries globally.

Application

• Anticoccidial Feed Additive: Primary use in poultry (broilers, layers) and ruminant feeds to prevent and control coccidiosis.
• Growth Promoter: Used to improve feed efficiency and promote weight gain in livestock by modulating rumen fermentation in cattle and intestinal microflora in poultry.
• Veterinary Pharmaceutical Ingredient: Active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) in formulations for the prevention of coccidiosis in various animal species.
• Premix Manufacturing: Key component in the production of concentrated nutritional and medicinal premixes for animal feed.
• Research & Development: Used in biochemical research as a specific ionophore for transporting divalent cations across biological membranes.
