EFFECT OF EGG SHELL SWEATING ON MICROBIAL SPOILAGE OF CHICKEN EGGS1

Dharam V. Vadehra, ROBERT C. BAKER

Abstract

A study was undertaken to show the effect of sweating on microbial spoilage of eggs. Sweating had little effect on the spoilage pattern. The improper washing procedure had a greater influence on spoilage than the sweating treatment. Induced infection studies showed far greater spoilage due to Pseudomonas than to Salmonella but the sweating procedure did not influence the spoilage pattern.
