There is increasing pressure within the poultry industry to improve biosecurity measures & cleanliness in primary production; advanced diagnostics for early disease detection are high on the agenda. In response to this specific industry need, this project will develop an integrated on-farm early-warning bacterial sensing system for Intensive Poultry Production Systems, targeting key foodborne disease pathogens prevalent in poultry meat: Campylobacter, E.coli & Salmonella. The proposed innovation integrating sample collection, chemical-free enrichment, acousto-optic detection & seamless user presentation, is enabled only by the inter-disciplinary convergence of leading agri-scientists & engineers with poultry producers & industry informers. The overarching objective is to enable earlier decision making by producers to instigate preventative control measures that minimise downstream cross-contamination, thereby decreasing foodborne disease incidence within the supply chain.

家禽业内部要求改善生物安全措施和初级生产清洁度的压力越来越大;用于早期疾病检测的先进诊断方法已列入议程。为了满足这一特定的行业需求，该项目将为集约化家禽生产系统开发一个集成的农场早期预警细菌传感系统，针对禽肉中流行的主要食源性疾病病原体：弯曲杆菌，大肠杆菌和沙门氏菌。拟议的创新集成了样品收集，无化学品富集，声光检测和无缝用户演示，只有通过领先的农业科学家和工程师与家禽生产商和行业信息提供者的跨学科融合才能实现。总体目标是使生产商能够更早地做出决策，以采取预防性控制措施，最大限度地减少下游交叉污染，从而降低供应链内食源性疾病的发生率。
