Abstract | ||||
To find out the actual fungicidal value of some disinfectants ava ilable on the Egyptian market, tow strains (Trichophyton mentagro phytes and Microsporum gypseum) were selected to perform this study. It has been found that the organic disinfectants showed an effective fungicidal action when compared with inorganic compounds even at higher concentrations. Moreover, the resistance of Trich ophton species to the lethal effect of different distinfectants was found to be higher than that of Microsporum. Bardisol (Nile Co) which is a phenolic compound in a 0.5% solu tion was found to be an excellent fungicides for disinfection practice incide animal enclosures. However, a 20% freshly prepared suspen sion of slaked lime (milk of lime) may be mixed with the manure, bedding and other waste materials in liberal quantitites before their disposal. | ||||
