Supporting the reduction of antibiotic use
Governments worldwide are seeking reductions in the use of livestock antibiotics to limit the development of antibiotic resistance, which can pass to the human population. Targeted legislation to reduce the use of prophylactic antibiotics in the food chain is now becoming a reality. So it’s critical that producers take steps to improve their biosecurity measures. With proven efficacy in a wide range of real-world biosecurity challenges against both viruses and bacteria, Virkon® S has proven key to combating the effects of viruses and bacteria in livestock production. As a disinfectant of choice for governments worldwide, Virkon® S leads the way forward in biosecurity bestpractice programmes.
