  • Title: Anticoccidial efficacy and chicken toleration of potent new polyether ionophores. 1. The septamycin relative CP-82,009.
    Author: Ricketts AP, Dirlam JP, Shively JE.
    Journal: Poult Sci; 1992 Oct; 71(10):1626-30. PubMed ID: 1454680.
    Abstract:
    The anticoccidial activity of the ionophore CP-82,009 against laboratory isolates of four major species of poultry Eimeria was investigated. Parameters of anticoccidial efficacy that were evaluated were control of lesions and weight suppression. At 4 and 5 ppm, CP-82,009 demonstrated broad-spectrum anticoccidial efficacy in battery trials that was equivalent to reference commercial ionophores. When CP-82,009 was fed to uninfected broiler chickens at efficacious dose levels, growth rate and feed efficiency were found to be equivalent to commercial agents over a 21-day period in batteries and over a 49-day period in floor pens. From the present studies, it appears that CP-82,009 is an efficacious anticoccidial that is well tolerated by chickens, and that it ranks among the most potent anticoccidial ionophores described to date.
