Shock Microbial

Microbial shock or reactivation is a serious disease that develops in germ-free (sterile) animals when they unexpectedly encounter common microorganisms in the environment. This phenomenon was first described in the 1940s and has been the subject of many studies since then.

Microbial shock is the reaction of the immune system to unexpected and potentially dangerous microorganisms. It can occur in animals that have been raised in sterile conditions without exposure to microorganisms, as well as in animals with suppressed immune systems.

Symptoms of microbial shock may include fever, chills, loss of appetite, diarrhea, vomiting and other signs of illness. This can lead to serious consequences for the health of animals and even to their death.

To prevent microbial shock, it is necessary to provide sterile conditions for raising animals and support their immune system. It is also important to carry out regular vaccinations and monitor the health of animals.

Microbial shock is a serious disease that occurs in a germ-free animal during a sudden and dramatic encounter with the normal microflora of its environment. If an animal is not exposed to bacteria or viruses, its immune system is not properly developed and it cannot defend against them.

As a result, undeveloped animals can become easy prey for microorganisms that begin to multiply rapidly. Microbes transform the animal's intestinal mucosa into a toxic substance, which leads to poisoning of the body, which is unable to resist the bacteria because it is not accustomed to them. As a result of such poisoning, serious consequences may occur, such as diarrhea, vomiting, and sometimes even the death of the animal. This can happen to all types of animals, but newborn germ-free babies are most vulnerable. However, if they are immune to microbes, then the likelihood of microbial shock occurring is much less.

If a person has to struggle with such a phenomenon, he needs to urgently seek help from a qualified specialist. The doctor will diagnose the severity of poisoning, select medications and give the necessary recommendations to avoid possible complications.
