Martirolium
Germsulfa
Neocleer
(W.S.P)
Composition :
Each 1gm contains:
Amprolium HCL 240 mg
(Eq. to amprolium base 212.2 mg )
Properties:
Amprolium is an anticoccidial agent that acts as competitive inhibitor of thiamine in the parasite metabolism, and interferes with the metabolism of glucides necessaries for coccidian multiplication and survival.
In in-vitro studies it was shown that the uptake of thiamine by schizonts of Eimeria tenella and by host intestinal cells can occur through passive diffusion or by an active, energy-and ph-dependent process. Amprolium competitively inhibited both systems; however, the parasite was shown to be more sensitive to amprolium than the host.
As shown with Eimeria maxima inoculated chicken, the administration of Amprolium resulted in a proportion of morphologically abnormal macrogametes and oocysts which may be considered the reason for a reduced sporulation rate.
