NAQUIBIO project aims to create a veterinary dressing based on a biopolymer that enhances healing and contributes to the improvement of animal health. Through the creation of this dressing, it is expected that the number of cases of infection development, and consequently the use of antibiotics in animals, will decrease and significantly contribute to the safeguarding of their welfare.
