SALINOPHOR-VS
is an anticoccidial product containing active ingredient of salinomycin sodium
and additive agents. Salinomycin sodium is a product of Streptomyces albus fungus fermentation.
Eimeriocydic
effect of the product is similar to that of other ionophoric antibiotics and is
related with its affinity with sodium and potassium ions and the potential of
the medicinal product to carry them over through cell membranes. The mode of
action lies in disturbance of sodium and potassium cations transfer in oocyst
leading to cessation of eimeria development at the schizogony stage.
Salinomycin
sodium is effective against majority of eimeria (Eimeria tenellla, E. acervulina, E. mivati, E. brunetti, E. maxima, E.
necatrix, E. meleagridis, E. meleagrimitis, E. bovis). In the digestive
tract of swines salinomycin sodium reduces the number of pathogenic microorganisms
- dysentery and clostridiosis pathogens (Treponema
hyodisenteria and Clostridium spp.).

effect over mucous and submucous membranes.
