What are the key application areas for Decoquinate-Based Products?

Decoquinate (ethyl 6-decoxy-7-ethoxy-4-oxo-1H-quinoline-3-carboxylate) is an antiprotozoal agent. It acts against coccidia parasites and is thus known as a coccidiostat. Decoquinate-based products are majorly used in veterinary medicine. The global decoquinate-based products market is segmented based on the type of formulation, and geography.  Decoquinate acts on the sporozoite stage of a coccidian parasite’s lifecycle. The sporozoite can penetrate the host’s intestinal call and prevents their further development, which necessitates the use of antiprotozoal substances. Decoquinate has low toxicity and is administered orally to a wide range of mammalian and avian species.

Various studies conducted on decoquinate-based products suggest that the drug is readily tolerated by several target species including cattle and lambs. On the other hand, studies conducted on rats and dogs showed minor changes in food consumption, feed conversion, subdued behavior, and changes in body weight and organ weight. In conclusion, though there may be a minor risk posed by decoquinate-based products, the protection it provides against coccidian parasites comfortably outweighs it.

Based on the type of formulation, the global decoquinate-based products market is segmented into powder, tablet, and nanoparticles, and so on. “Powdered decoquinate” dominates the global decoquinate-based products industry owing to its ease of usage. Powdered decoquinate-based products can easily be added to animal feed, which also helps the drug gets absorbed into the animal’s body at a rapid rate.

However, nanoscale decoquinate-based products comprise the fastest-growing segment of the global decoquinate-based products market due to the added advantages nanoparticles provide over powders. The smaller size of nanoparticles means they can be absorbed into the animal’s body even quicker than powders. The increased overall surface area of nanoscale decoquinate-based products also means they are more reactive and more likely to encounter a coccidian parasite. Based on geography, the global decoquinate-based products market is segmented into Asia Pacific, North America, Europe, Latin America, and Middle East & Africa.
