摘要: 1. The microbiological composition of litter (straw and wood shavings) was sampled, prior to placing 1-d-old chicks, during housing the birds after depopulation. Two independent trials were conducted. 2. total aerobic plate count (APC) determined predominant microflora samples identified using flow charts. 3. Before chick placement, APC shavings (about 4·0 log/g) lower than straw log 7·5/g). With stocking, in both types increased about 9·76/g straw-litter 9·89/g shavings, respectively. After depopulation, remained high (> log 9 litter) within period observation. 4. From experiments, 1981 isolates collected identified, most them Gram-positive. During stocking birds, number Gram-positive (in particular irregular rods Micrococcaceae) increased; depopulation it stayed at that value, whereas of...
