Abstract

Betadine or polyvinylpyrrolidone - iodine PVP-I a non-selective organic germicide is found to be an effective egg surface disinfectant for C. macrocephalus eggs. By washing fertilized eggs in Betadine solutions of 10 25 40 and 60 ppm for 10 minutes the means percentage hatching are found to be significantly higher from that of control P less than 0.05. The highest mean percentage hatching is achieved at concentrations of 25 ppm Betadine as proven in the verification trials. Bacterial culture of eggs treated with Betadine proved to be negative as compared to the control
