Sample Use Guides

Chickens with Salmonella infantis were fed on a diet supplemented with 20 ppm nitrovin.
Route of Administration: Oral
Nitrovin was shown to be directly mutagenic in Salmonella typhimurium TA 98 and TA 100 between 0.1 and 2.5 ug per plate (0.09–2.3 uM). Nitrovin inhibits the growth of the same bacteria in suspension cultures at concentrations above 0.09 uM.
