Description

Lasalocid A Sodium Salt is a polyether ionophore antibiotic widely used in veterinary medicine and animal nutrition. Its primary value lies in its potent anticoccidial and growth-promoting properties, making it a critical component in modern livestock management. This compound is essential for manufacturers of veterinary pharmaceuticals and premix feed additives targeting poultry, cattle, and swine production.

Application

• Veterinary Anticoccidial Agent: Primary use in the prevention and treatment of coccidiosis in poultry (broilers, layers) and ruminants.
• Feed Additive: Incorporated into premixes and complete feeds to improve feed efficiency and promote growth in food-producing animals.
• Veterinary Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Serves as a key active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) in the formulation of oral solutions, powders, and medicated feeds.
• Research & Development: Used in microbiological studies and as a standard in analytical laboratories for quality control of animal health products.
• Ionophore Studies: Employed in biochemical research to study ion transport across cell membranes due to its ionophoric properties.
