Salinomycin Usage And Synthesis

Chemical Properties

White or light yellow crystalline powder, slight specific smell, melting point 140-142 ℃. Soluble in acetone, chloroform, benzene, ethyl acetate, diethyl ether and methanol, almost insoluble in water. Rats by oral LD5070-100mg/kg, mice orally LD5050mg/kg, chicken LD50150mg/kg.

Uses

Salinomycin is safe and effective coccidiostat,which has inhibitory effect on most Gram-positive bacteria ,it also has effect on chicken coccidiosis, soft Ehrlich, Ehrlich poison, giant Ehrlich, Ehrlich and heap-shaped ball Harrington insects. It can be used for chicken feed, the amount is 50-60g/t,it should be stopped during laying period, the period is 5 days. Equine animals are hanged, it causes death after use; and it is banned using it with tiamulin, oleandomycin simultaneously.

production method

It is produced by fermentation of white Streptomyces (Streptomyces albus).

Description

Salinomycin Na (55721-31-8) is a polyether ionophore with antibiotic and anti-cancer properties. It induces cell death in some types of cancer cells such as breast, lung, gastric cancer, leukemia and osteosarcoma.1?Salinomycin Na displays selective toxicity for cancer stem cells.1?Induces rapid mitochondrial hyperpolarization.2?Induces selective cytotoxicity to MCF-7 mammosphere cells via the hedgehog signaling pathway.3?Salinomycin Na reduces doxorubicin resistance of breast tumor cells by inhibiting drug efflux pump expression and activity.4?Kills cancer stem cells by sequestering iron.5

Chemical Properties

Brown Solid

Uses

Salinomycin is an ionophore agent.

Uses

Salinomycin sodium is prepared from salinomycin taking advantage of the acidic carboxylic acid which ionises and readily forms the salt in sodium hydroxide solutions. The sodium salt is the preferred formulation in animals to prevent coccidiosis and to promote growth. Salinomycin has a high affinity for monovalent cations, particularly potassium. Recently, salinomycin has been shown to inhibit cancer stem cells.
