About Nuflor

• Florfenicol offers in vitro activity against a wide range of bacterial swine pathogens, including Pasteurella multocida, Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae, Streptococcus suis, Haemophilus parasuis, Bordetella bronchiseptica, Salmonella choleraesuis, and Mycoplasma spp.
• Excellent efficacy against complex SRD demonstrated in extensive field studies conducted in the US and Europe.
• High-volume tissue distribution.
• Good lung diffusion (achieving lung concentrations similar to the serum concentrations).
• Bacteriostatic antibiotic but is also a concentration dependent bactericide for P. multocida and non-concentration dependent for A. pleuropneumoniae.
• Achieves high serum and lung levels within a very short time, this is important for acute processes such as those involving A. pleuropneumoniae.
• Little chance of bacterial resistance; effective against multiple antibiotic-resistant organisms; not susceptible to chloramphenicol acetyltransferase (CAT) enzyme that deactivates chloramphenicol.
• Minimal environmental impacts.
• Safe for humans, lacking the chemical group responsible for chloramphenicol’s human toxicity concerns (bone marrow suppression and aplastic anemia).
• High product quality and research-based technical support from MSD Animal Health.
