Amprolium chloride

Description:
Amprolium chloride is a synthetic compound primarily used as an anti-coccidial agent in veterinary medicine, particularly in poultry. It functions by inhibiting thiamine (vitamin B1) utilization in protozoa, thereby disrupting their metabolism and growth. The substance appears as a white to off-white crystalline powder and is soluble in water, which facilitates its administration in feed or drinking water for livestock. Amprolium chloride has a relatively low toxicity profile for animals when used as directed, but care must be taken to avoid overdosing, as it can lead to thiamine deficiency. Its chemical structure features a pyrimidine ring, contributing to its biological activity. In terms of regulatory status, it is approved for use in various countries, but specific guidelines regarding dosage and withdrawal periods before slaughter must be adhered to, ensuring food safety. Overall, Amprolium chloride plays a significant role in managing coccidiosis, a common parasitic disease in poultry, thereby supporting animal health and productivity.
