Description

Lysocellin is a polyether ionophore antibiotic derived from *Streptomyces* species. This compound is valued for its potent activity against Gram-positive bacteria and its role as a coccidiostat in veterinary medicine. It is primarily utilized by manufacturers in the animal health and feed additive industries for promoting growth and controlling parasitic infections in livestock.

Application

• Veterinary Coccidiostat: Used in poultry and livestock feed to prevent and control coccidiosis.
• Animal Growth Promoter: Incorporated into feed formulations to improve feed efficiency and growth rates in ruminants and poultry.
• Antibacterial Agent: Effective against Gram-positive bacteria, used in research and development of antimicrobial products.
• Feed Additive Intermediate: Serves as a key active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) in the production of premixes and medicated feeds.
• Biochemical Research: Used as a research tool in studies of ion transport across biological membranes and antibiotic mechanisms of action.
• Veterinary Pharmaceutical Manufacturing: A critical raw material for producing injectable or oral formulations for veterinary use.

Quality Control

Our Lysocellin is produced and tested under strict quality management systems to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and reliability. Each lot is analyzed to meet high-purity standards suitable for feed additive and veterinary API applications. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA), detailing parameters such as potency, related substances, and residual solvents, is provided with every shipment to guarantee compliance with your specifications.

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). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after each use to prevent degradation from atmospheric moisture.
