Description

Salinomycin Sodium Salt is a polyether ionophore antibiotic derived from *Streptomyces albus*. This compound is valued for its potent anticoccidial and antibacterial activity, primarily targeting gram-positive bacteria and certain protozoa. It is a critical additive in animal husbandry for promoting growth and preventing coccidiosis in poultry and livestock. Researchers also utilize it as a selective agent in cell biology studies, particularly for cancer stem cell research.

Application

• Poultry Feed Additive: Primary use as an effective anticoccidial agent to control and prevent coccidiosis in broiler chickens.
• Livestock Growth Promoter: Incorporated into cattle and swine feed to improve feed efficiency and promote weight gain.
• Veterinary Medicine: Used in the formulation of veterinary therapeutic products for treating specific bacterial infections.
• Biomedical Research: Employed as a research chemical to study ion transport across biological membranes and as a selective agent in microbiology.
• Cell Biology & Oncology Research: Investigated for its ability to selectively target cancer stem cells and induce apoptosis in various cancer cell lines.
• Microbiological Agent: Acts as an antibiotic in laboratory settings for selective pressure in microbial culture.

Quality Control

Our Salinomycin Sodium Salt is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Every batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing including HPLC for potency, residual solvent analysis, and microbial limits to ensure it meets high-purity standards suitable for feed additive and research applications. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications and test results is provided with each shipment to guarantee traceability and compliance.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). This product is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) and light-sensitive; therefore, containers must be kept tightly sealed and away from direct light to maintain stability and potency.
