Bovilis Cryptium
Introducing BOVILIS® CRYPTIUM®, the long awaited vaccine to protect dairy and beef cattle against Cryptosporidium parvum.
Developed for active immunisation of pregnant heifers and cows to raise antibodies in their colostrum against Gp40 of C. parvum and intended for passive immunisation of calves to significantly reduce clinical signs (i.e. diarrhoea) caused by C. parvum.
Bovilis Cryptium works by increasing the specific antibodies in the colostrum of the dam, which are then passed onto the calf when it consumes her colostrum. This provides the calf with protection against the parasite in the form of passive local immunity. Protection of calves depends on adequate ingestion of colostrum and transition milk from vaccinated mother cows. It is recommended that all calves are fed colostrum and transition milk during the first 5 days of life.
Available in 5, 20 and 50 dose presentations and has a shelf life of 28 days after first opening the immediate packaging.
GP40 IS THE KEY
The significance of the antibodies against the Gp40 antigen of C. parvum infection has been well-established. This antigen plays a crucial role in the creation of Bovilis Cryptium, a Gp40-based vaccine.
The Gp40 antigen in Bovilis Cryptium induces antibodies that neutralize the C. parvum infections in-vitro and are reactive with at least 4 different C. parvum stages; Sporozoites, Trophozoites, Meronts and Merozoites.
Bovilis Cryptium can be administered at the same time as Bovilis® Rotavec® Corona, at different injection sites.
These two vaccines together protect against the 4 of the most common Neonatal Calf Diarrhoea pathogens.
C. parvum, coronavirus, rotavirus, E. coli.
Bovilis Cryptium is a vaccine for subcutaneous administration.
