Monensin is a polyether ionophore antibiotic mainly used for preventing and treating coccidiosis in chickens, lambs, calves, and rabbits, as well as promoting the growth of ruminants. Monensin can affect the ion balance of the parasite, causing it to rupture and die. It acts on the second day after infection, and the coccidian develops into the first generation of schizonts. Monensin can also increase rumen production, improve feed utilization efficiency, and increase weight gain rate. Monensin has a strong effect on Gram positive bacteria (especially Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus, and Bacillus subtilis) and Streptococcus suis, but its effect in animals is weak and it is not suitable for antibacterial use.
