A probiotic to improve udder health
Developed from a selected Staphylococcus chromogenes strain originating from bovine milk our strain demonstrates in vitro inhibitory activity against major mastitis pathogens (e.g. Staphylococcus aureus—including methicillin-resistant strains—Escherichia coli, Streptococcus uberis), pro-immune modulation, and its ability to colonize the udder environment.
A chimeric endolysin to control streptococcal bovine mastitis
The endolysin is a chimeric fusion protein with lytic properties consisting of a selected combination of enzymatically active domains (so called EADs), which define the enzyme’s cleavage sites, and a cell wall-binding domain (so called CBD), which confers its bacterial specificity
