[Disinfection studies with Salmonella senftenberg using egg shells as germ carriers]

The present investigation was carried out to study the efficiency of 8 chemical disinfectants on Salmonella senftenberg in the presence or absence of serum (organic matter) using egg shell as bacterial carrier. The most of the tested disinfectants were effective in the used concentrations after a working time of 60 min. at room temperature. Some quaternary ammonium compounds proved to be not effective.
