Cryptosporidiosis
Cryptosporidiosis is a disease caused by a very tiny organism, the size of a red blood cell. The calf swallows the crypto, it is in cow manure. Manure on the cow’s teats or from the environment provide the source. The crypto organism burrows into the wall of the calf’s gut and incubates for approximately 48 hours, then it erupts into the lumen of the gut. Half of the organisms are released to contaminate the environment, whilst the other half dive into the lining of the gut and start incubating agin. If the calf eats one crypto organism on day one, it becomes one million by day eight. Crypto is auto-infective; once it is in the calf’s body, it does not have to pass out of the calf in order to reinfect it.
Crypt-Occur
Crypt-Occur® is a calf milk additive that helps to speed up the calf’s immune response to Cryptosporidium and is becoming very popular with many dairy farmers all around the UK. Crypt-Occur is a carefully formulated, synergistic blend of ingredients designed to support the gut, immune system and intestinal microflora of calves at risk from exposure to cryptosporidia and other pathogens. Esterified butyrins and plant extracts enhance the barrier effect of the gut wall through their positive effects on the tight junctions and mucus production. This helps to minimise “leaky gut” and reduce the passage of pathogens and antigens into the bloodstream of the calf causing inflammation. Essential oils, plant extracts and fatty acids work together to reduce any gut inflammation, which can also be induced by the stress commonly experienced by young calves. Calves need gradual exposure to disease causing organisms and parasites such as cryptosporidium, to allow the build up of immunity without the production of disease. Strengthening the immune system with egg products (dried), yeast components included in Crypt-Occur®, and the use of fatty acids, butyrins and prebiotics to balance the gut microflora, Crypt-Occur® is a formidable product for use when cryptosporidiosis threatens calf health.
