works. Mr Marko Kirovski presented “Directives and suggestions to

vaccines and vaccinology”. This work showed results from controlling
process and efficiency of our vaccine Antravet (series 14), but also
directives and suggestions from WHO and importance and dangers of

not a profitable venture because it is used with appearance of the
disease (Anthrax districts), and most of the scientific authorities
agree that it helped reducing a transfer to people and, in some
countries, eradication of the disease.

of 3 freight vehicles, equipped with specialized modern technology: 2.5t
van with Thermo King, 5t truck with Thermo King, and 8.5t truck bulker
cistern with 10t trailer. This has considerably improved the

diagnostic devices, as well as bulked animal feed to the final consumer,
according to “Good Distribution Practice” (GDP).

administrative building. This enabled the installation of a modern IT

raised the level of work performed by the employees at the

commodity in the adequate working facilities.

With intensive expert prevention against avian influenza and
carcinogenic diseases
Veterinary
Medicine Institute Zemun, Belgrade, as
the most prominent and largest manufacturer of animal feed and
supplements, veterinary vaccines and medications, gives its full
contribution to the general health of animals and people in the
prevention of avian influenza and carcinogenic diseases in people.
Through the expert lecture and consultations with professor Peter Surai
from Scottish Agricultural College, who is also a part-time and guest
professor at several international agricultural and medical universities
in the fields of nutrition and physiology, as well as the expert
consultant for Alltech®, one of the world's leading producers of
biotechnological products, the experts from
Veterinary
Medicine Institute Zemun, Belgrade had a chance to get better acquainted with global
research methods and trends, as well as to exchange experiences with
professor Peter Surai and the achievements of Alltech®.
Professor Peter Surai is a scientist who performed numerous studies on
organically bound selenium and vitamin E in the nutrition of poultry and
other domestic animals, with the emphasis on their role as antioxidants,
in the increase of immunity levels, reduced possibility of viral
mutation and the achievement of much better production and health
results in the breeding of domestic animals.
By the disposal of organically bound selenium in meat, milk and eggs,
the prevention is achieved against the appearance of carcinogenic
diseases in people, since it has been proven that we are among the
countries whose population does not receive basic requirements of
selenium through regular food.

practical and laboratory work, an inspection was performed of all
aspects, possibilities and perspectives which Veterinary Medicine

food, which has a direct contribution to healthy human nutrition.
The conclusion that the achieved quality is the product of joint
intellectual and physical effort and collaboration with globally
renowned manufacturers proves that we are a “Responsible team with a
clear vision of healthy future“, where the preservation of high-quality
animal health conditions is directly reflected in human health, which is
shown by the recent events surrounding avian influenza.

animal feed supplements, as well as expertise in animal nutrition,
vaccine protection and animal treatment, with the multiple qualities of
its products,
Veterinary
Medicine Institute Zemun, Belgrade is actively involved in
