Enteritidis is one of the most common serotypes of Salmonella globally and is historically associated with poultry. Unfortunately, antibiotic resistance is making it more challenging to treat.
Proper litter management is a key factor in controlling Salmonella on the farm. Zac Williams, PhD, assistant professor of poultry management at the University of Arkansas, addressed this topic at the Delmarva Chicken Association’s 59th National Meeting on Poultry Health, Processing and Live Production.
A recent study in Brazil showed that the technology behind a proprietary bacteriophage “cocktail” developed by PhageLab can significantly reduce the presence of Salmonella in poultry farms.
Meeting tougher demands by the USDA’s FSIS to control Salmonella doesn’t warrant reinventing the wheel, according to Chuck Hofacre, DVM, PhD, president of the Southern Poultry Research Group, Inc.
