chlortetracycline A TETRACYCLINE with a 7-chloro substitution.
sulfadimidine A sulfanilamide anti-infective agent. It has a spectrum of antimicrobial action similar to other sulfonamides.
ormetoprim
diclazuril
sulfaquinoxaline An antiprotozoal agent used to combat coccidial infections of swine, cattle, fowl, and other veterinary animals. Also used in controlling outbreaks of fowl typhoid and fowl cholera and in treatment of infectious enteritis
robenidine An anticoccidial agent mainly for poultry
lasalocid Cationic ionophore antibiotic obtained from Streptomyces lasaliensis that, among other effects, dissociates the calcium fluxes in muscle fibers. It is used as coccidiostat, especially in poultry
monensin An antiprotozoal agent produced by Streptomyces cinnamonensis. It exerts its effect during the development of first-generation trophozoites into first-generation schizonts within the intestinal epithelial cells. It does not interfere with hosts development of acquired immunity to the majority of coccidial species. Monensin is sodium and proton selective ionophore and is widely used as such in biochemical studies
maduramicin Isolated from Actinomadura rubra
halofuginone
decoquinate A coccidiostat for poultry
clopidol A very effective anticoccidial agent used in poultry
narasin
salinomycin From Streptomyces albus;
oxytetracycline A TETRACYCLINE analog isolated from the actinomycete STREPTOMYCES RIMOSUS and used in a wide variety of clinical conditions.
nicarbazin Coccidiostat for poultry
erythromycin A bacteriostatic antibiotic macrolide produced by Streptomyces erythreus. Erythromycin A is considered its major active component. In sensitive organisms, it inhibits protein synthesis by binding to 50S ribosomal subunits. This binding process inhibits peptidyl transferase activity and interferes with translocation of amino acids during translation and assembly of proteins.
bacitracin A complex of cyclic peptide antibiotics produced by the Tracy-I strain of Bacillus subtilis. The commercial preparation is a mixture of at least nine bacitracins with bacitracin A as the major constituent. It is used topically to treat open infections such as infected eczema and infected dermal ulcers. (From Goodman and Gilman, The Pharmacological Basis of Therapeutics, 8th ed, p1140)
tylosin Macrolide antibiotic obtained from cultures of Streptomyces fradiae. The drug is effective against many microorganisms in animals but not in humans
lincomycin An antibiotic produced by Streptomyces lincolnensis var. lincolnensis. It has been used in the treatment of staphylococcal, streptococcal, and Bacteroides fragilis infections.
tetracycline A naphthacene antibiotic that inhibits AMINO ACYL TRNA binding during protein synthesis.
gentamicin A complex of closely related aminoglycosides obtained from MICROMONOSPORA purpurea and related species. They are broad-spectrum antibiotics, but may cause ear and kidney damage. They act to inhibit PROTEIN BIOSYNTHESIS.
sulfamerazine A sulfanilamide that is used as an antibacterial agent.
sulfadimethoxine A sulfanilamide that is used as an anti-infective agent.
coumafos A organothiophosphorus cholinesterase inhibitor that is used as an anthelmintic, insecticide, and as nematocide
sulfomyxin
ethopabate An inhibitor of folate metabolism. It is used as coccidiostat in poultry
novobiocin An antibiotic compound derived from Streptomyces niveus. It has a chemical structure similar to coumarin. Novobiocin binds to DNA gyrase, and blocks adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) activity. (From Reynolds, Martindale The Extra Pharmacopoeia, 30th ed, p189)
hygromycin b Aminoglycoside produced by Streptomyces hygroscopicus. It is used as an anthelmintic against swine infections by large roundworms, nodular worms, and whipworms
semduramicin Carboxylic acid ionophore for management of chicken coccidiosis
amprolium A veterinary coccidiostat that interferes with THIAMINE metabolism
carbomycin From Streptomyces halstedii
spectinomycin An antibiotic produced by Streptomyces spectabilis. It is active against gram-negative bacteria and used for the treatment of GONORRHEA.
bambermycin Antibiotic complex obtained from Streptomyces bambergiensis containing mainly Moenomycins and C. They are used as feed additives and growth promoters for poultry, swine, and cattle
colistimethate sodium
piperazine has anthelmintic action
dinitolmide A coccidiostat for poultry
avilamycin
streptomycin An antibiotic produced by the soil actinomycete Streptomyces griseus. It acts by inhibiting the initiation and elongation processes during protein synthesis.
lutein A xanthophyll found in the major LIGHT-HARVESTING PROTEIN COMPLEXES of plants. Dietary lutein accumulates in the MACULA LUTEA.
sulfachloropyrazine
ceftiofur
metoserpate
virginiamycin An antibiotic complex originally isolated from Streptomyces mitakaenis. It contains two principle ingredients: STREPTOGRAMIN A (mikamycin A) and STREPTOGRAMIN B (mikamycin B).
