The efect of phytometabiotic "Phytolysat Gastro" on parameters gomeostaza and changes in the populations of the microfora of the large intestine of calves with gastrointestinal disease syndrome

Among the diseases of young cattle, the most common are lesions of the gastrointestinal tract. Most often they are manifested by diarrhea, which leads to dehydration of the body and severe metabolic disorders. Often sick calves lose a lot of weight, and then lag behind in growth compared to healthy animals, cases of death are not uncommon. With such diseases, the microflora inhabiting the digestive tract is subject to great changes. At the same time, it is populated by pathogenic species whose vital activity complicates the course of the disease. We have studied the therapeutic effect of the use of phytometabiotic drug “Phytolizat Gastro” in gastrointestinal diseases in calves. For the study, experimental and control groups of black-and-white calves aged 10-14 days were formed by the method of analogues. All the calves studied had a clinical sign of gastrointestinal tract damage - diarrhea. According to the results of the study, the effect of the drug on the body was established. Blood counts vary in intervals close to the average values of norms. According to the results of the study, the recovery of calves of the experimental group in a shorter time, greater preservation of body weight during recovery and further increase in calves of the experimental group (by 85 g) compared to calves of the control group was established. Microbiota studies have shown that the amount of Lactobacillus spp. the calves of the experimental group decreased by 8.5% less compared to the control group, and the amount of Bifidobacterium spp. the calves of the experimental group increased by 48%. At the same time, the total number of lacto- and bifidobacteria prevails in calves of the experimental group, which indicates a positive effect of the studied drug on the microflora of the gastrointestinal tract of calves.
