Abstract

Three different disinfection programs were applied in the three poultry (pines) houses in faculty of veterinary medicine at Cairo University which simulate small scale Egypt poultry farm sector using available traditional materials that casily obtained from Egyptian market. In the cleaning process we used surfactant, foam technique and 5 % chlorinated surfactant in Program A, B, C respectively and in the disinfection process we used quick lime mixed with cresol, quick lime mixed with Calcium hypochlorite and quick lime mixed with cresol and Calcium hypochlorite in program A, B, C respectively. The disinfection programs take three days through these steps which are whipping (Dry cleaning), applying water with high pressure directly (Wet cleaning), applying the detergent with brushing directly twice, after rinsing with water immediately at the first day. At the second day, applying the disinfectant was done. At the third day, the house is left to dry. Swabs were taken before and after each application. Fifteen swabs were taken from (walls, floor and roof) 5 swabs per each before and after each application. The log mean of the average of each five was calculated. It is concluded that the three programs were effective and successful as all of them achieved the reduction which is as standard optimization for the disinfection process. The use of the foam technique in cleaning process produced an excellent result; also the addition of chlorine to the surfactant achieved an observable reduction in microbial viability. Local Egyptian market disinfectant products present and produce in Egyptian market should be evaluated periodically as they may be devalued or less in their active ingredients regarding to the labeled ingredients.
