BALLYA Tiamulin Test is manufactured by BALLYA, it’s rapid test for detection tiamulin residues in feed product and food, especially in feed. Lateral flow assay test base on the gold immunochromatography assay technology.
Tiamulin is fermented from the higher fungus Pleurotus mutilus to obtain pleuromutilin, and then chemically synthesized to obtain hydrogenated fumarate. It is a diterpene antibiotic for livestock and poultry. It was first proposed by Kavangh of Australia in 1951, and extensive research began in the 1960s. It is one of the top ten veterinary antibiotics in the world.
Pharmacological effects of tiamulin
Tiamulin antibacterial spectrum is similar to macrolide antibiotics, mainly against gram-positive bacteria, strong against Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus, Mycoplasma, Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae, Treponema suis dysentery, etc. The inhibitory effect is strong against mycoplasma and macrolides. It has a weak effect on Gram-negative bacteria, especially intestinal bacteria.
Antibacterial mechanism
The drug acts on ribosomes in bacteria, thereby inhibiting the synthesis of bacterial protein. Low concentrations mainly show antibacterial effects, and high concentrations show bactericidal effects.
How Tiamulin uses for?
Tiamulin indications
It is mainly used for the prevention and treatment of chronic respiratory diseases in chickens, mycoplasma pneumonia (asthmatic disease), actinomycete pleuropneumonia and treponemal dysentery. Low dose can promote growth and improve feed utilization.
Precautions
1 Incompatibility: polyether ionophore antibiotics (monensin, salinomycin and ammonium madomicin, etc.); 2 The drug withdrawal period is 5 days, and laying hens are forbidden; 3 Storage conditions: sealed and protected from light, stored in a ventilated, cool, dry, free of pollutants, no toxic and harmful substances; 4 Storage time: under the specified storage conditions, the original packaging can be stored for two years;
What are the Tiamulin side effects?
Tiamulin drug interactions
①Tiamulin can affect the metabolism of polyether antibiotics such as monensinand salinomycin, and can cause poisoning when used in combination, causing chickens to grow slowly, dyskinesia, paralysis, and even death. ②Tiamulin combined with antibiotics that can bind to the 50S subunit of the bacterial ribosome has an antagonistic effect. ③Tiamulin and Chlortetracycline are fed at a ratio of 1:4, which can treat swine bacterial enteritis, bacterial pneumonia, treponemal swine dysentery, mycoplasma pneumonia, Bordetella bronchiseptica and Pasteurella multocida Pneumonia caused by mixed infection of bacilli has a significant effect.
Tiamulin use as a veterinary medicine
Prevent and treat the respiratory and digestive systems of livestock and poultry caused by Mycoplasma, Pneumococcus, Escherichia coli, Salmonella, etc., such as chronic respiratory diseases, swine asthma, pleuropneumonia, mycoplasmal arthritis, swine blood dysentery, tracheitis and bronchitis.
Usage and dosage
Poultry: drinking water, add 400Kg of water per 100g of this product; Livestock: 200Kg per 100g of this product; continuous use for 3-5 days.
Withdrawal period
Pigs and broilers on the 28th and laying hens on the 7th.
What specimen can be detected by BALLYA Tiamulin Test?
Specimen include: all kinds of feeds and food. Widely used in feed industry and food processing industry. You can choose the right products according to your needs.
Significance of testing Tiamulin
To protect the animal have health feed, food and avoid contaminated food. The tiamulin is harmful for animal being, can not take too much in the body.
1. Take feed or food specimen 2. Add the supernatant to cassette 3. Wait for 15 minutes to result 4. The details of operation, refer to the kit instruction
Limitations of BALLYA Tiamulin Test?
BALLYA Tiamulin Test is a qualitative test kit. It’s only for screening purpose. If have positive cases or suspected case, maybe use other detection method to make a further detection, such as, ELISA, PCR, qPCR, etc.
Conclusion
As a pharmaceutical feed additive, tiamulin can significantly promote weight gain and increase feed conversion rate, and is widely used in the field of livestock and poultry breeding. However, many people do not pay attention to the dosage and usage of tiamulin, which leads to the residue of tiamulin in food. Tiamulin is harmful to the human body and should be avoided as much as possible. The BALLYA Tiamulin Test provided by BALLYAcan effectively detect the tiamulin in the samples. Simple operation, short detection time and high accuracy are the characteristics of this product.
