Description

Maduramicin is a polyether ionophore antibiotic derived from *Actinomadura rubra*. It is a highly effective coccidiostat, primarily valued for its potent activity against *Eimeria* species in poultry. This compound is critical for the animal health and veterinary pharmaceutical industries, where it is used to formulate anticoccidial feed additives. Its targeted mechanism helps prevent coccidiosis, supporting livestock health and productivity.

Application

• Poultry Feed Additive: Primary use as a coccidiostat in broiler chicken feed to control and prevent coccidiosis.
• Veterinary Pharmaceuticals: Active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) in premixes and medicated feeds for livestock.
• Animal Health Products: Key component in formulations designed to promote growth and improve feed efficiency by controlling parasitic infections.
• Research & Development: Reference standard in microbiological and pharmacological studies for novel anticoccidial agents.
• Feed Mill Production: Incorporated into uniform feed mixtures to ensure consistent dosage and efficacy.

Quality Control

Our Maduramicin is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for potency and related substances, to ensure it meets high-purity standards suitable for feed additive and veterinary API applications. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with every shipment, detailing purity, identity, and impurity profiles.

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 opening to prevent degradation from atmospheric moisture.
