Appreciating step by US FDA proposal for regulation on distribution of Eggs affected by salmonella anteritidus.

Very shocking news and are seen at Arslan poultry waste materials near Sadiq abad .

afrrica is far behind.there is no regulation against salmonella species in nigeria for now.. from day old til when birds are slaughtered, salmonella species are more abundant.the presenece of salmonella species made it difficult if not impossible to produce egg powder in nigeria. there is no farm that can claim that is farm sis absolutely free from bacterial contaminants..my candid advices to average nigeria is to aviod eating egg raw for now until we can comply with this standard
