Monensin Premix is a coccidiostat and growth promoter widely used in poultry and ruminant feed. It helps prevent coccidiosis, improves feed efficiency, and supports healthy weight gain in livestock. It is particularly effective in controlling Eimeria species in broilers and enhancing rumen fermentation in cattle.
Key Benefits:
Prevents and controls coccidiosis in poultry
Enhances feed conversion rate and growth performance
Promotes rumen fermentation in ruminants
Reduces methane emissions and improves energy utilization
Helps reduce the risk of subclinical infections
Applications Scenarios
1. Coccidiostat Control
Applicable Targets:
Coccidiosis in Chickens: Effective against tender, toxic, giant, and agglomerated Eimeria species, with peak efficacy in the early stages of infection (from sporozoites to first-generation schizonts).
Ruminant Coccidia: Eimeria jacobini in lambs and calves.
Mechanism of Action: Interferes with sodium-potassium ion exchange in coccidia cells, leading to sodium ion influx, osmotic imbalance, and subsequent rupture and death.
2. Growth Promotion and Feed Efficiency Enhancement (Core Application for Ruminants)
Applicable Targets: Beef cattle (especially feeder cattle) and mutton sheep during the fattening period.
Core Benefits:
Improve feed conversion rate: Increases propionic acid production (a high-efficiency energy source) by regulating rumen fermentation, reduces protein degradation, and increases total rumen protein.
Accelerated Weight Gain: Clinically proven to increase weight gain by 15%-20%, shortening the time to market.
Improve Intestinal Health: Promotes the proliferation of rumen ciliates and beneficial bacteria, enhancing nutrient absorption.
Core Selling Points:
1. Dual Function Integration
One dose, two effects: Addresses coccidiosis control needs (e.g., chicken and calf farms) while significantly improving fattening economics (e.g., beef cattle and sheep farms) and reducing overall medication costs.
2. Outstanding Economic Benefits
Weight Gain Benefit: Increases daily weight gain of beef cattle by 15%-20%, reducing feed-to-meat ratio.
Feed Cost Optimization: Improves non-protein nitrogen utilization, reducing reliance on expensive protein raw materials.
Meat Quality Improvement: Long-term use can improve beef marbling scores and reduce water loss (a core value of high-end beef cattle farming).
3. Controllable Safety
Low Residue: Virtually no residue is absorbed in the cattle digestive tract, eliminating the risk of tissue residue and meeting food safety requirements.
Short Withdrawal Period: Only 5 days for chickens and cattle, allowing for flexible market scheduling.
4. Convenient Use
The premix format allows for direct incorporation into feed, eliminating the need for complex pretreatment.
