Dithiazanine Iodide（Cat No.:I011895）is a veterinary anthelmintic agent primarily used to treat parasitic infections caused by nematodes in livestock and pets. It acts by disrupting the parasite’s energy metabolism and cellular function, leading to paralysis and death. Dithiazanine Iodide is particularly effective against gastrointestinal worms, including roundworms and threadworms, improving animal health and productivity. Beyond its anthelmintic use, it has been studied for potential applications as a staining dye in research due to its unique spectral properties. Its dual roles make it valuable in veterinary and scientific fields.
