Physiological changes in hemostasis in calves and piglets under adverse environmental conditions when using catosal

Catosal is a reliable biostimulant for food animals. It is able to increase their overall viability, but its effect on hemostasis parameters remains not fully understood. The use of catosal was accompanied by a significant decrease in spontaneous and stimulated platelet aggregation in calves and piglets that underwent an episode of hypothermia. As a result of the use of catosal in these calves and piglets, a decrease in the activity of hemocoagulation was achieved, which optimized hemocirculation. In calves and piglets of the first control groups, an increase in the severity of platelet aggregation and activation of hemocoagulation were found. This negatively affected their hemorheology and inhibited the metabolism in their organs. In calves and piglets of the first control groups, activation of hemostasis occurred, which was combined with a decrease in the magnitude of increments. Thus, the use of catosal in calves and piglets that have experienced an episode of hypothermia is accompanied by a decrease in the activity of plasma hemostasis and hemostatic characteristics of platelets, which improves the perfusion of their tissues and stimulates growth.
