Why are Component with Tylan brand implants the best choice for profit-minded cattle producers?

 

  A healthy implant site – the blue Tylan pellet, the first pellet in each dose, serves as a local antibacterial to maintain the health of every implant site.

  Less connective (scar) tissue around the implant – A study at Iowa State University demonstrated that Component with Tylan reduced the animal's inflammatory response, presumably by reducing the level of bacterial infection at the implant site. The result is a thinner capsule wall around the implant.

 

Component Tylan Mode of Action

Every animal mounts an inflammatory response to implanting. Contaminants such as dirt, hair or bacteria carried under the skin with the needle further enhance the inflammatory response.

 

 

As part of the defense mechanism, neutrophils and macrophages (white blood cells) race to the implant site to kill the bacteria. Fibroblasts migrate to the site and form a capsule around the implant. The more severe the challenge and inflammatory response, the thicker the capsule around the implant and the greater the number of neutrophils present.

 

Thermographic imaging shows there is more heat in ear A, implanted without the Tylan pellet, than in ear B, implanted with Component with Tylan. The increased heat in ear A indicates a greater inflammatory response (infection).

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

A study at Iowa State University demonstrated that Component with Tylan reduced the animal’s inflammatory response to the implant and any bacteria or debris. By reducing the number of neutrophils and the capsule thickness, the growth promoting compounds in the implant can deliver their full performance potential.

 

A healthy implant site means improved implant performance. The economic benefit of maximizing implant performance has been confirmed in numerous feedlot trials with Component with Tylan.

 

 

FDA-approved, patented technology. No food safety concern. No withdrawal.

   Maximum performance – in six feedlot research studies, Component with Tylan showed an advantage in cattle performance when compared to non-Tylan implants or growth-promoting implants.

 

  $7 - 8 return per head – when you consider live performance and carcass results, field trials indicate that Component with Tylan returns an extra $7 to $8 per head over non-Tylan implants. That's a 40:1 return of your Tylan investment!

 

  The Component with Tylan implant guns – The Component 200T gun is used for Component TE-200 with Tylan. All other Component with Tylan products are applied using either the Component One gun or the Component EZ gun. All devices are durable, easy to use, minimize operator fatigue and allow excellent control for implant placement. Plus, all Component with Tylan products are packaged in 20-dose belts, meaning less operator down-time to load the device. VetLife recommends the Component EZ gun for new users. Please refer to the VetLife implant reference chart [383 KB PDF] for assistance in product and device selection.
