Tops Chatter

I just got an invitation for a seminar where professionals will discuss the past, present and future of Santoquin. I am reading things like: it has given feed producers and nutritionist peace of mind, protecting feed from oxidation and other good things. I never heard this name. But I am a curious person. So, I went to the Internet to search what that could be. It looks like it is another name for ethoxyquin. On the site of the University of Oregon it says:” A yellow liquid antioxidant and herbicide. It has been found to cause liver tumors in newborn mice.”

Years ago the late Alicia McWatters wrote an investigative report on ethoxyquin. If you are interested on reading it, here is the link:

Another one from Gillian Willis, a pharmacist and toxicologist:

 Ethoxyquin was one of the reasons Totally Organics came into life. We just did not want any chemicals in our parrot food.
