Revisiting Old Ionophore Lasalocid as a Novel Inhibitor of Multiple Toxins
The ionophore lasalocid is widely used as a veterinary drug against coccidiosis. We found recently that lasalocid protects cells from two unrelated bacterial toxins, the cytotoxic necrotizing factor-1 (CNF1) from Escherichia.

Structural Basis of Sequential Enantioselective Epoxidation by a Flavin-Dependent Monooxygenase in Lasalocid A Biosynthesis. [PDF]
Lsd18 is a flavin‐dependent monooxygenase from Streptomyces lasalocidi that performs two enantioselective epoxidations during lasalocid A biosynthesis. X‐ray crystal structures of Lsd18 bound to a substrate and product analogue illuminate how this enzyme performs multiple epoxidations on the same substrate molecule and how it controls stereoselectivity.

Spectroscopic, Spectrometric and Computational Studies of New Lasalocid Derivatives and Their Complexes with Selected Metal Cations [PDF]
A series of five esters of lasalocid with neopentyl alcohol (LasNeo), geraniol (LasGeran), 2-ethylhexanol (LasEtHex), eicosanol (LasEico) and vanillyl alcohol (LasVanil) were synthesized and studied by NMR, FT-IR and ESI-MS.

Trends in Veterinary Drug Residues in US Cattle: Analysing USDA Sampling Data. [PDF]
National US residue monitoring data (2021–2023) were analysed to characterise veterinary drug residue detections in cattle. Detection patterns varied by cattle type, with dairy cows accounting for the highest number of detections and a consistent group of commonly used drugs responsible for most violative and non‐violative findings.

Assessment of the application for modification of the terms of the authorisation of the feed additive consisting of <i>Bacillus velezensis</i>ATCC PTA-6737 (PB6) for all pigs, all poultry species for fattening or reared for laying/breeding, laying hens, minor poultry species for laying and ornamental birds (Kemin Europa N.V.). [PDF]
Abstract Following a request from the European Commission, EFSA was asked to deliver a scientific opinion on the safety and efficacy of the preparation consisting of viable spores of Bacillus velezensis ATCC PTA‐6737 (tradename PB6). PB6 is currently authorised for use as a zootechnical additive (functional group: gut flora stabilisers) for all poultry

Copper(II), a Peculiar Metal Ion for Complexation With Monensin A Ionophore. [PDF]
Copper(II) forms three chiral and EPR‐active complexes with monensinate A in methanol. Beside the bis [CuL2] and mono [CuL]+ species, the new dinuclear construct [Cu2L]3+ exhibits an [ML]+‐type and a metal salt‐type copper(II) centers weakly bound to each other through counter ion(s) and thus, being magnetically independent.
