Clopidol

Clopidol (chemical name 3,5-dichloro-2,6-dimethyl-4-pyridinol, CAS 2971-90-6, molecular formula C7H7Cl2NO) is a white to off-white crystalline powder supplied by Ningbo Pangs Chem Co., Ltd., which sources rather than manufactures the product to Ph. Int. standards, with samples available. It functions as a coccidiostat by disrupting the mitochondrial energy metabolism of Eimeria parasites, halting their replication and reducing oocyst shedding when added to poultry and livestock feed or drinking water, and is subject to regulated withdrawal periods before slaughter. The product is distributed across North America, Central/South America, Western and Eastern Europe, Australasia, the Middle East, and Africa.
