Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim 82 words
A method for controlling coccidiosis in animals which comprises orally administering to said animals an effective coccidiosis-controlling amount of one or more active compounds corresponding to the formula ##STR4## wherein X represents H, Cl, Br, F, I, CCl 3 , CCl 2 F, CClF 2 , CHF 2 or CF 3 ; and tautomers or physiologically acceptable salts thereof, the effective amount being in the range of from about 0.1 to about 100 mg/kg of body weight of the animal per day.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 82 words
A method for controlling coccidiosis in animals which comprises orally administering to said animals an effective coccidiosis-controlling amount of one or more active compounds corresponding to the formula ##STR4## wherein X represents H, Cl, Br, F, I, CCl 3 , CCl 2 F, CClF 2 , CHF 2 or CF 3 ; and tautomers or physiologically acceptable salts thereof, the effective amount being in the range of from about 0.1 to about 100 mg/kg of body weight of the animal per day.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 32 words
The method of claim 1 wherein the active compound is 7-chloro-5-nitro-2(1H),3(4H)-quinoxalinedione which corresponds to the formula ##STR5## or a tautomer thereof; said animals are poultry; and the active compound is administered orally.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 13 words
The method of claim 2 wherein the poultry are turkeys or broiler chickens.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 30 words
The method of claim 2 wherein the active compound is administered to the poultry at a rate of from about 4 mg/kg body weight/day to about 23 mg/kg body weight/day.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 30 words
The method of claim 2 wherein the active compound is administered to the poultry at a rate of from about 10 mg/kg body weight/day to about 20 mg/kg body weight/day.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 30 words
The method of claim 1 wherein the active compound is administered to the poultry at a rate of from about 0.1 mg/kg body weight/day to about 100 m/kg body weight/day.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 38 words
The method of claim 2 wherein the active compound is administered to the poultry by incorporating the compound into a standard poultry feed in an amount of from about 50 to about 500 grams per ton of feed.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 39 words
The method of claim 2 wherein the active compound is administered to the poultry by incorporating the active compound into a standard poultry feed in an amount of from about 125 to about 225 grams per ton of feed.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 13 words
The method of claim 8 wherein the poultry are turkeys or broiler chickens.
