Commercial Advantage

Three things antibiotics cannot do.

Bacteriophages were discovered in 1915, suppressed by the rise of antibiotics, and are now the fastest-growing segment in precision animal health. The science behind the commercial advantage is straightforward.

01

Host-Specific Precision

Each phage binds to specific receptor proteins on the target bacterium's outer membrane. Non-target organisms — beneficial gut flora, probiotics, coccidiostats — are not recognized or harmed. Broad-spectrum antibiotics flatten everything.

02

Peer-Reviewed Performance

Three peer-reviewed trial documents on file — broilers (n=1,500), layers (n=2,400), and Ma-chicken (n=1,050). FCR improvements up to 7.4% and mortality reductions of 55%.

03

Zero Residues. Zero Resistance.

Phages self-limit once the target pathogen population collapses — replication ceases when target bacteria fall below threshold density. No tissue residues, no environmental accumulation, no contribution to antimicrobial resistance.

System Capabilities

Five steps. One outcome: pathogen eliminated.

1
Adsorption

Phage binds to specific receptor proteins on the target bacterium. Non-target organisms are not recognized.

2
Injection

Phage DNA enters the bacterial cell, leaving the capsid outside.

3
Replication

Host cell machinery is redirected to produce 50–200 new phage particles per cycle.

4
Lysis

Bacterial cell wall ruptures. Progeny phages are released and propagate through the remaining pathogen population.

5
Self-Limitation

Once pathogen density falls below threshold, phage replication ceases. No accumulation. No residues.

Product Portfolio

Seven SKUs. Three application categories.

Each product is a distinct formulation designed for a specific species, pathogen profile, and customer type. The poultry line spans farm-ready finished goods to high-titer concentrates for feed manufacturers.
