The Effect of Disinfectants on Pre-Incubation Treatment of Eggs for Improving the Poultry Farming
Pre-incubation treatment of eggs with disinfectants Argodez and Virocide was carried out scientifically and experimentally; and their high bactericidal activity in relation to bacteriological indicators of washings from the shell of hatchable eggs was proved. A stimulating effect on the embryonic development, quality and preservation of chickens has been established. The objective of the research is to determine the effect of disinfectants Argodez and Virocide on the sanitary and bacteriological indicators of the washouts from the surface of the shell and the embryonic development of chickens. Research methods. The disinfectants Argodez and Virocide served as the research material. The object of the research was the hatchable eggs of meat cross Ross-308. A hatchable egg was selected for research and production, the average weight of the egg was 55 grams. Aerosol disinfection of eggs with the disinfectants Argodez and Virocide before placing in the incubator showed a significant decrease in the total microbial number in the washouts from the hatchable eggs by 55% and 56%. This decrease indicates a net assessment of the object. Pre-hatching processing of eggs contributed to a dynamic increase in the hatching of chickens in experimental groups of trays by 7.00 and 9.20 p.p. In the process of biological control on the 7th, 11th, 18th day of the research and according to the results of pathoanatomical autopsy of incubation waste, in experimental batches of eggs, it was found that there was a decrease in the eggs of the "infertile" category ( by 1.00 and 2.00 p.p.), with the “blood ring” defect (by 2.20 and 2.77 p.p.), with “frozen” embryos (by 1.65 and 2.02 p.p.), and "addled" ones (1.04 and 1.05 p.p.).
