IP5 Specific intervention strategies to reduce Campylobacter along the food chain

This sub-project aims at finding the optimal combination of the presently available measures to effectively reduce Campylobacter in chickens. This approach of a successful synergistic large scale arrangement shall reduce Campylobacter on broiler carcasses in order to improve human health in a sustainable way and according to the idea of a “One- Health” approach.

The system will be tested under controlled conditions and in field trials. The effect on Campylobacter colonisation, resistance and pathogenicity will be monitored. This sub-project aims in closing the gap of effective measures for use in commercial broiler production and livestock farming.
