Poultry Samples Requested

[JBrown_UoL]

I am a postgraduate student at the University of Lincoln, studying the environment poultry live in. I am looking for participants to take part in a study which will identify the level of Clostridium perfringens in your poultry environments. I will be looking for samples of bedding, feed, faeces, and swabs of the poultry sheds. Only small samples will be taken (approximately 5g of each and a swab of the walls of the shed). The samples collected will remain anonymous. All data and samples collected will be given a number and the name of your farm/company will never be given. At no point will the name of your farm and the number assigned be matched.
Please can you visit the sample collection site www.faecalphage.com or email me at [email protected] if you are interested in helping me with my project. If you have any concerns or require any information about the study, please do not hesitate to contact me regarding the matter using the email address given above. 

Your help is greatly appreciated.

Hi Joseph I am sure many of our members will be interested, I will sticky this for a bit so the thread doesn't fall of the page.

Please keep us posted on your findings!

I just filled in the form for a sample kit and Joseph got back to me saying that the survey is about to be restarted so I can expect one in the post (in case anyone missed it last year).
