Summary:In animals given a concentrate containing TD antioxidant and monensin, development depression could be observed but when given EMQ antioxidant + monensin, no depressive effect appeared. In cage experiments the TD antioxidant potentiated the toxicity of monensin to a lesser extent than that of salinomycin, while the toxicity of lasalocide was not at all influenced by it. Apart from the antioxidants, substances appearing in the feed, in the course of the multiplication of saprophytic bacteria, may also increase the weight depression caused by the ionophore antibiotics. A high saprophytic bacterium count in the feed may occur any time under unfavourable conditions of storage, and substances incompatible with the ionophore anticoccidial preparations produced potentiate the toxic effect of the latter ones.
