Anticoccidial Agent
Monensin sodium salt hydrate is widely used in veterinary medicine, particularly in poultry farming, to prevent and treat coccidiosis, a parasitic disease caused by Eimeria species. Its ionophore properties disrupt ion gradients in coccidial parasites, leading to their death.
Ruminant Growth Promotion
In cattle and other ruminants, monensin sodium acts as a feed additive to improve feed efficiency and promote growth. It modulates the rumen microbial population, shifting fermentation towards propionate production, which is utilized more efficiently by the host.
Analytical Standard
This product serves as a VETRANAL™, analytical standard for chromatographic and other analytical techniques. It is crucial for the accurate determination of monensin levels in feed, animal tissues, and environmental samples for regulatory and quality assurance purposes.
