"Cleaning and disinfection have always been important for optimum hatchery performance. Effective cleaning and disinfection must prevent biofilm from establishing by removing all organic and inorganic residues, foreign bodies and micro-organisms, from surfaces" – Aline Kuntze Ferreira, Incubation Specialist, Aviagen

Even the best hatcheries experience pathogenic activity as conditions in poultry sheds turn unhygienic, permitting the multiplication of illnesses, such as Salmonella, E. coli and Campylobacter, which have a direct effect on the health and food standards. Post mortems of first week mortalities or winnows regularly bring about separation of the above species and others from conditions, for example, omphalitis/yolk sac contamination and excited/tainted hawk joints. An efficient disinfecting program is important in every poultry bio-security program. The time of disinfection must be after de-populating/ emptying the old chickens and entry of the new ones, going by the "all in all out" scheme. The main purpose of the disinfection program still is the reduction of the number of pathogens. Reducing the pathogen numbers decrease the chances of disease occurrence.

Major Areas of Concern

Egg, Setter & Hatcher Interiors, Hallways, Washing Rooms, Trays, Boxes and Baskets, Bird Processing and Holding Areas, Laboratory and Vaccination Equipment, Ventilation System Components such as Ducts, Plenums, Inlets, Outlets, Filters, Air Handling Units, Water Plumbing, Humidification System and Logistic Trucks.

What determines a healthy hatchery?
  • Minimum drug use, such as antibiotics within the hatchery
  • Good biosecurity program to reduce contamination levels
  • Application of best feasible procedures, detergents, disinfectants
  • Routine monitoring keeping microbial load in check

Formulating a disinfectant for use in hatcheries or poultries is not an easy task, requires heavy expertise on synthesizing the complete process. The disinfection has to be performed without harming the birds and or feed. The existence of contaminants depends upon several factors like soil, air, surrounding conditions etc.

It has been studied by global experts that about a considerable amount of poultry birds were affected in the last decade due to pathogenically occurring diseases, resulting in rising poultry products crisis and cost.

Proper concern and priority are needed to be given to this sector and one of the best ways to prevent the occurrences of such damages is to use suitable non-toxic disinfectant to eradicate pathogens, contributing to the healthy growth of the birds.

Cleanliness and sanitization play a noteworthy part in any successful disease control program for poultry production premises.

  • Dry Cleaning with scraping and brushing of litters from ceilings, fans, floors, etc.
  • Followed by wet cleaning, done in three parts:
  • Soaking the heavily soiled areas thoroughly
  • Washing of the surfaces with a neutral or slightly alkaline detergent
  • Rinsing with water immediately afterwards
  • Air drying with a blower following the rinsing with water.
  • Repairing of all faulty structures before disinfection

Silver Hydrogen Peroxide for Poultry Disinfectant finds a wide usage in:

  • Aerial fumigation to sanitize concerned territories of poultry sheds, breeding areas, incubator tanks, and more
  • Drinking water treatment by mixing silver hydrogen peroxide at recommended concentration
  • Surface disinfection by spraying disinfectant over the targeted areas

Silver Hydrogen Peroxide proves advantageous in the following ways:

  • Environment-friendly nature
  • Non-toxic, colourless, odourless
  • Broad spectrum with multifunctional applications
  • Cold Sterilant with No rinse – No wipe solution post application
  • Hassle free usage with no toxic residues
  • Microorganisms cannot build up resistance

Hydrogen Peroxide accelerated with Silver Ions, manifests excellent anti-bacterial, anti-fungal properties and effectively eradicates harmful weeds and microorganism from the soil and also prevents further reproduction of those parasites as the silver present in the compound alters the DNA structure of those microorganism, inhibiting any kind of further reproduction. The areas in the poultry sheds where disinfectants can be of great utilization are Terminal shed, Chick breeding area, Incubator tank, Egg storage tank, Hatchery table, Storage area, etc.

Chemtex Speciality Limited formulates Silver Hydrogen Peroxide under the trade name of Alstasan Silvox to be used as a multi-purpose, highly effective disinfectant for use in various applications such as food processing, dairy, agro, fisheries, RO, hatchery, potable water and other process industries. Alstasan Silvox can be used as air fumigator for air borne germs, water sanitizer for water-based contaminants and surface disinfector for various hard foreign masses. Its no-rinse; no-neutralization property makes it easily usable. Eco-friendly water and oxygen residues make this biocide safe for animals safeguarding them against poultry diseases. The disinfection program must be carried out by depopulating the poultry bird to some other safe place.
