Detailed Product Description

Halquinol is a controlled mixture of chlorhydroxyquinolines. The constituents act synergistically to enhance biological activity.
The antimicrobial effects of halquinol derives from its ability to chelate metal ions, particularly iron, copper and zinc. In bacteria, fungi and protozoa, essential trace elements are thus removed, and enzyme functioning ceases.
Additionally, halquinol acts directly on gastrointestinal smooth muscle to slow down peristaltic activity. Thus absorption of nutrients, particularly in animals suffering from diarrhoea, is enhanced, and performance criteria are improved markedly.
Improves growth rate and feed conversion efficiency
Active against fungi, gram positive and gram negative bacteria, and against protozoa
Prevents and cures many types of diarrhoea
Unique anti-peristaltic activity to promote better absorption of nutrients
Very little is systemically absorbed. Halquinol works in the GI tract
