The working group deals with issues relating to the introduction, spread and transmission of infectious agents in animal husbandry and veterinary practices, as well as the development and evaluation of appropriate intervention measures. In this context, questions relating to biofilm formation and the biofilm-associated tenacity of infectious agents are also investigated, and there is close interaction with the working groups “Air and Environmental Hygiene” and “Antibiotic Resistance & Biofilms”.
