[0002] Monensin is produced by *Streptomyces cinnamon* ( Streptomyces cinnamonensis Monensin is a polyether antibiotic produced through fermentation, and it has been found to have broad-spectrum anticoccal activity. As a highly effective polyether antibiotic, monensin is widely used in livestock farming for anticoccal and growth-promoting purposes.
