Project description
Early detection of enteric diseases in poultry
Enteric diseases cause considerable economic loss to the poultry farm industry. Early detection of the diseases results in timely treatment of animals. BloomVet developed a new disruptive volatile organic compounds (VOCs) analysis technology (EnteroDetectAVI) to identify signs of enteric disease in the air early on. It also provides a prediction service for farmers. Affordable and reliable, EnteroDetectAVI is easily installable in poultry sheds for monitoring animal health status 24/7. In the EU-funded BEAWARE project, the technology will be commercialised through a B2B approach targeting farmers through meat groups in Italy, and worldwide through companies producing additives for animal feed.
