Cultivation-based and molecular quantification of bacteria on the eggshell surface. Eggs from different producers were treated with passive (A,C) and active (B,D) fumigation in combination with a highly bioactive diazine derivative. Bars represent cfu and gene copy number counts respectively. Significance levels were determined with Student’s t-test. *p < 0.05; **p < 0.01.
