Maduramicin Ammonium is prepared from Maduramicin by taking advantage of the acidic carboxylic acid which ionizes and readily forms a salt complex in ammonium hydroxide solutions. This formulation is preferred in animals to enhance growth and prevent coccidiosis. Maduramicin is an ionophore, forming complexes with monovalent cations, with a higher affinity for K+ than Na+. Maduramicin Ammonium is soluble in ethanol, methanol, DMF and DMSO, but has limited water solubility.
