Micotil is a proven, long-lasting BRD treatment that offers flexible, cost-effective dosing for both metaphylaxis and individual pull-and-treat therapy. Explore below how it impacts the lungs, respiratory tract and immune cells in cattle after just one dose.
Alveolar macrophages, the primary defence mechanism in the lower respiratory tract. engulf pathogens, kill and digest them. * They recruit neutrophils through cytokine release.
Neutrophils quickly move from the blood stream in response to bacterial invasion to the site of the infection. Like macrophages, they also kill bacteria by engulfing and digesting them. *
Micotil concentrates in the alveolar macrophages and neutrophils and is carried straight to the site of BRD infection where it is needed most.*
