The tamaVet® Multi 4TA Test allows the combined and reliable detection of antigens of rotavirus, coronavirus, bacterium Escherichia coli K99 and parasite Cryptosporidium parvum in faeces of calves.
Combined test tamaVet Multi 4TA for cattle and calve diarrhoea
Rotaviruses are the most important pathogens that cause severe gastrointestinal diseases, especially in young animals of various species. The virus infects intestinal cells and, after a short incubation period (12 hours to approximately 3 days), leads to drastic electrolyte shifts and to the death of cells, caused in part by the enterotoxin NSP4. Disease caused by Clostridium perfringens is associated with increased proliferation in the intestine, with the formation of various toxins.
The protozoan Cryptosporidium parvum is an enteric parasite, the infection is normally transmitted orally. The bacteria Escherichia coli (E. coli) is found in the intestinal tract. Enterotoxigenic E. coli (ETEC) have the ability to form enterotoxins in the intestine. Diarrhoeal diseases, especially in calves, are often caused by mixed infections with one of more of these pathogens. The largely similar symptoms they prompt, such as apathy, anorexia, diarrhoea, dehydration and fever can cause large losses in the herd as early as a few hours/days after birth.
The test is suitable for the early detection of suspected rota- and coronavirus, E. coli K99 and Cryptosporidium parvum, or in the case of clinical symptoms in cattle. As the excretion of pathogens differs and can be intermittent, the test should be repeated if necessary.
If in doubt, contact a vet immediately and present your pet. If the rapid test shows a positive result, please take the test and the faecal sample to your vet.
