Salmonella infection is a major human health hazard.  The primary action of Megan Vac 1 is to reduce the shedding of Salmonella typhimurium through chickens into the human food chain.

Salmonella organisms are spread widely throughout the environment.  Salmonella prevention requires complex controls and monitoring.  Megan Vac 1 plays an important role in salmonella control programmes.  Megan Vac 1 is used in breeder chickens to prevent vertical transmission of salmonella to progeny destined for broiler or layer production.

Megan Vac 1 is used in the layer chickens to control salmonella shedding in or on eggs. Megan Vac 1 is used in broiler chickens to control salmonella on chicken meat.
