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.).

Administered perorally, salinomycin is very little absorbed in digestive tract and has its effect over mucous and submucous membranes.

The product SALINOPHOR-VS is referred to moderately toxic substances (3rd safety class), is compatible with vitamins and feed additives used in poultry farming.
