Jingchu Network News (Reporter Guo Yao) "Hubei will consider guiding the establishment of egg cleaning centers in major egg-laying counties and cities to provide egg cleaning and disinfection services for farmers, and then extend them to the whole province, making Hubei the safest area for egg consumption in the country." On April 16, at a symposium on the situation of poultry production and marketing held by the Hubei Provincial Animal Husbandry Bureau, the relevant person in charge of the Hubei Provincial Animal Husbandry and Veterinary Bureau said.

Eggs are discharged from the reproductive pores of poultry and are highly susceptible to contamination of intestinal microbes. In addition to the production and sales of clean eggs by some large enterprises, many citizens buy dirty eggs directly on the market without cleaning and disinfection at the farmers' market.

Studies have shown that the number of bacteria on each clean eggshell surface is 0.3 to 4000, while the number of bacteria on each eggshell surface of commercially available fresh eggs is 14.23 million.

Professor Ma Meihu, director of the National Egg Processing Technology Research and Development Sub-center of the Ministry of Agriculture, deputy dean of the School of Food Science and Technology of Huazhong Agricultural University, and doctoral supervisor, has been calling for the development of clean eggs since 2000. He believes that clean eggs after cleaning, disinfection and processing are safer and easier to preserve.

Ma Meihu said that the US Congress approved the "Egg Product Inspection Act" in 1970 to prohibit the circulation of "dirty eggs. In South Korea, Japan, Canada and other developed countries, all the eggs that enter the market are cleaned by grading machines.
