THE EFFICIENCY OF A NEW DISINFECTANT IN RABBIT FARMING
An important component of the biosafety program for rabbit meat production is strict adherence to sanitary and hygienic measures. The composition of the drug includes: hydrogen peroxide, potassium fluoride, diammonium phosphate, EDTA, sulfonol and a polar solvent (40% water-alcohol mixture). We studied the microclimate parameters for a closed type of rabbit breeding premises with a controlled microclimate. The air temperature was 12 ºС, relative humidity was 65%, the maximum permissible concentration of carbon dioxide in the premise was 0.2 mg/m3, ammonia was 10 mg/m3, the optimal air speed in the rabbit pen was 0.3 m/sec. As a result of microbiological studies, when taking swabs from the surface of control cages with a volume of 0.12 m3, gram-negative rod-shaped bacteria of the type Escherichia coli were detected. Based on experimental studies, the high antimicrobial activity of the domestic disinfectant AlkoPerit has been established in doses of 5 to 15 mg/m3 when aerosolized in enclosed spaces in the presence of animals.
