PHYTO COCCIDIOSTAT-PR

(Herbal formulation to prevent and treat coccidiosis with Haemocoagulant)


INTRODUCTION

Prions Biotech. offers holistic combination of phytochemicals and Vitamin K3 with a diverse mechanism of action on multiple species of Eimeria. This active constituent suppresses the developmental stages in the life cycle of Eimeria by several mechanisms, restricting the damage to intestinal cells and spread of the infection by several mechanisms. Its active ingredients have been developed by Indian Biotechnology company (PRIONS BIOTECH PVT LTD.) This formulation contains herbal formulations to treat Coccidiosis with Haemocoagulant.

There is also a higher interest from the consumer in organic poultry production and a great demand for natural and healthier products. In this context, the use of natural remedies has become a promising alternative to anticoccidial drugs.

Coccidia is extremely common in poultry raising operations, but infections in birds occur when they ingest large amounts of sporulated oocysts. These oocysts are transmitted through equipment, insects, clothing, and farm workers. When birds become infected and even after recovery, they shed oocysts in droppings, contaminating the entire enclosure. Oocysts can sporulate within two days in optimal conditions.

When birds become infected and even after recovery, they shed oocysts in droppings, contaminating the entire enclosure. Oocysts can sporulate within two days in optimal conditions.

Decreased growth rate and decreased production are the direct results of coccidiosis infection. Birds infected with severe symptoms can recover in 10-14 days, but their performance will continue to decline. It greatly increases mortality in chicks and older birds are relatively resistant.

Chemical anticoccidials have varying degrees of efficacy ranging from good to partial resistance, indicating its use should either be restricted or if possible be discontinued because in the near future development of resistance against these anticoccidials will be seen. Use of herbal products as an alternative to anticoccidial drugs may overcome the hazards caused by the chemical drugs. Generally, plant extracts do not have a problem of resistance and broilers fed on herbal feed additives were accepted well by the consumer.

To date, Eimeria strains have gained resistance to all known coccidiostats, and new anticoccidials are unlikely to be developed, mainly because of strict legislative regulations on the use of feed drugs and growing concerns in the general population about the chemical residues in poultry products. Over the past years, the consumption of poultry meat has grown consistently, especially because it represents a fairly cheap source of food with lower production costs and accepted by all religions.

In addition, the compromised immune system and damaged intestinal passage becomes an easy target for secondary bacterial infections like Clostridium and Salmonella spp.



COCCIDIOSIS MEANING

Coccidiosis is a disease of the intestinal tract caused by the microscopic parasites called Eimeria protozoa. It is a single cell microscopic parasite which enters the chick's body through ingesting the parasite egg on the ground.

Coccidiosis is a parasitic disease caused by seven species of the genus Eimeriawith different localizations within the intestinal tract of chickens. Eimeria acervulina, E. maxima and E. tenella are the most prevalent species in broilers in the intensive poultry management system.

Coccidia have many different stages occurring either within the bird host, or in the outside environment. Within the host, the parasite develops into an oocyst, which is then excreted in the bird droppings. In the environment (typically in the litter) and under optimal temperature and moisture conditions, this oocyst then develops into a sporulated oocyst.

The sporulated oocyst can infect other chickens and is very resilient, often surviving in the environment for several months. The prepatent period, which includes parasite development and sporulation, is approximately 4–7 days. Although many infections are subclinical, clinical signs of coccidiosis typically include diarrhea, decreased growth rate, decreased feed and water intake, decreased egg production, and increased mortality.

The parasite then multiplies in the intestine and is eventually expelled through the chick's feces. At this point, other chick will become infected when they accidentally ingest the Coccidia parasite. Chicks can all quickly get infected, most often spread by bringing infected hens into your flock, or by wild birds. The coccidia parasite is nearly impossible to completely eradicate.

Coccidia multiply best in warm, wet, dirty, overcrowded conditions and unfortunately nearly every chicken run contains trace amounts of the parasite. Fortunately, healthy adult chickens usually have strong enough immune systems that they won't be affected.

IT NORMALLY MANIFESTS ITSELF IN CHICKS THROUGH THE FOLLOWING SYMPTOMS:

  • Messy fluff around the vent
  • Yellowish, foamy diarrhea
  • Bloody droppings
  • Ruffled feathers
  • Poor appetite
  • Lethargy
  • Standing alone with closed eyes
  • Weight loss due to inability to absorb nutrients in food
  • Eventual death

Even if a chick survives, permanent intestinal tissue damage often occurs. Since a chicken's immune system is centered in the intestine, survivors could have a compromised immune system for life.
