Salmogenics is the only patented salmonella vaccine injected into the egg before the chick is hatched. Salmogenics significantly reduces the presence of salmonella in the chicken.

The aim of the Salmogenics vaccine is to improve the immune system, health and welfare of the 40 billion broiler chickens in the world and to provide a healthier source of protein for humans in a more cost-effective manner. Salmogenics testing has demonstrated a stronger immune system against salmonella as well as increased weight gain and reduced mortality in poultry. Salmogenics could lessen the need for use of antibiotics,an essential benefit to both the poultry industry and, ultimately, consumers.
