Description

COXISTAC - SITE OF ACTION IN THE EIMERIA LIFECYCLE

Coxistac is an anticoccidial and promotes lysis of Eimeria organisms at all stages of the lifecycle of the parasite.
Coxistac has high affinity and binds to the cell membrane of Eimeria, allowing for cation transfer into the cell through the membrane, creating osmotic imbalance in the parasite cell. The excess of cations and water in the Eimeria cell activates the water and cation transport mechanisms, in an attempt of restoring the osmotic balance, with energy expenditure, and eventual lysis of Eimeria. Sporozoites and merozoites are destroyed in the gut lumen.

BENEFITS OF COXISTAC

• Effective control of coccidiosis;
• Broad spectrum of action, effective against the most prevalent Eimeria spp. in poultry. Improves weight gain and FCR;

• As Coxistac is a granulated product, allows for a more stable and uniform mixing.
