This project will involve research into the optimal production and purification methods for bacteriophages that are effective against bacterial infections in pigs. Cytophage’s bacteriophages will provide a highly effective, environmentally safe, and a cost competitive alternative to antibiotics in the pork industry. This project will benefit Cytophage by helping to advance our technology and product […]
