Sacox® 120 microGranulate has been used in billions of chickens to protect
them from coccidiosis and to guarantee optimal performance.
For all these years no adverse effects on either feed intake or feathering
have been observed, regardless of the season and temperature.
Sacox® 120 microGranulate is a coccidiostat for the prophylactic control of
all coccidial species affecting chickens: E. acervulina, E. maxima, E. tenella,
E. necatrix, E. brunetti, E. mitis and E. praecox
Salinomycin forms complexes with cations present in the gut lumen and transports them through
the cell membrane. This causes a disturbance in the parasite’s intracellular ion concentration
which eventually results in the destruction of the parasite.
Salinomycin sodium has a coccidiocidal effect on the sporozoites and the merozoites (asexual
stage) and also impairs the subsequent development of schizonts. As a result, there is minimal
minimal damage to the intestinal cells.
