Utilization of Bee Nest Waste as A Natural Disinfectant on Hatching Eggs Poultry

Abstract

Sanitation hatching eggs are essential to achieve a high level of hatchability and produce healthy chicks. Sanitation activities are carried out within the hatching eggs is to clean up using naturally based disinfectant can be used, such as waste bee nest, the election bee nest as a disinfectant because it contains approximately 50% resin compounds ( avonoids and phenolic acids). The purpose of this research was to determine how much in uence the use of chemical disinfectants and disinfectant from waste bee nest to changes in the amount of bacteriain air space hatching eggs and disinfectant against bacterial inhibition obtained from the air hatching eggs. The method used is the Open petri dish Method; the data were analyzed descriptively with 5 treatments, Control, Water, Bee nest + Alcohol 70%, KMnO4 + Formalin 40% and Alcohol 70% with four replications. Variables measured is the amount ofair space bacteriaandinhibition of disinfectantagainstbacteriaobtainedfrom the airspacehatching eggsThese results indicate that the bee nest can suppress the growth of bacteria by 41.03% and provide more inhibitory zone of 20 mm, which indicates that the disinfectant used is very strong.
