title: [Microbial contamination of dust in minimum-morbidity housings for pig rearing].
abstract: The range of the microbial contamination of 1 g of dust in minimum-morbidity pig rearing houses is from 2.9 . 10(7) to 7.6 . 10(9) in the microbes growing on meat-peptone agar (MPA), from 4.6 . 10(7) to 4.6 . 10(8) in moulds growing on the Czapek-Dox agar, from 1.4 . 10(2) to 7.0 . 10(4) in the total number of microbes growing on End's agar, and from 3.1 . 10(2) to 5.7 . 10(3) in the typically lactose-positive microbes growing on End's agar. The numbers of microbes in 1 g of dust in the conventional pig houses are close to the numbers found in pig rearing houses with minimum morbidity. However, in the moulds on the Czapek-Dox agar, the range of the microbial contamination of dust in the minimum-morbidity pig houses was much higher. The highest level of the contamination of dust with microbes was found on all types of media from houses with continual operation. It was revealed by the control of the effectiveness of disinfection in the minimum-morbidity piglet rearing section, operated on the all-in all-out basis, that in a half of the cases studied the disinfection had low effectiveness. The total number of microbes per 1 sq. cm was lower than required on the basis of research published in literature, but the occurrence rate of positive smears with lactose-positive microbes after disinfection was higher in percentual expression.
