O projecto PHAGOVET foi concebido para satisfazer a procura do mercado por uma solução mais segura e fiável para controlar a Salmonella nas explorações avícolas.

Especialmente, PHAGOVET será a primeira solução baseada em fagos para controlar natural e eficazmente ambas as bactérias na produção avícola, evitando ao mesmo tempo efeitos secundários e resíduos associados ao uso de antibióticos. O objectivo é reduzir as infecções por Salmonella em 20%.

Assim, PHAGOVET proporcionará uma medida de controlo eficaz e promissora para um problema preocupante para os criadores de aves de capoeira e para a saúde humana.
