Problem
Dairy farms face significant economic losses due to mastitis, a common bacterial infection of the udder in cows, which reduces milk production. Current methods for preventing mastitis are not always effective, leading to widespread infection and substantial financial strain on farmers.
Solution
VERI NANO develops VERI Seal, a teat sealant that prevents bacterial and mold growth within the teat canal, addressing the primary cause of mastitis. The sealant utilizes a patent-pending bionanotechnology to create a nanomesh-type cast with shear thinning properties, ensuring it remains in place throughout the cow's dry period. VERI Seal is antibiotic-free, comprised of EPA-safe ingredients, and is easily removable, promoting cow comfort. This innovative approach reduces the incidence of mastitis, leading to increased milk production and reduced costs for dairy farmers.
Target Audience
The primary target audience is dairy farmers seeking to reduce mastitis infections in their herds and improve overall milk production efficiency.
Features
- Nanomesh structure that physically blocks bacterial entry into the teat canal.
- Shear thinning properties for long-lasting adhesion during the dry period.
- Antibiotic-free formulation to prevent antimicrobial resistance.
- EPA-safe ingredients minimizing environmental impact.
- Muco-adhesive properties for easy and comfortable removal.
