Abstract

In order to investigate the Storage time of chicken eggs, several physico-chemical tests from chicken eggs store at 5, 13 and 27$^{\circ}C$ were examined. Egg samples were collected from six poultry farms. Egg stored at 5$^{\circ}C$ based on the depth of air cell and specific gravity, were all acceptable until 17 days ; on the egg yolk coefficient and pH of the egg white and egg yolk until about 10 days. Egg stored at 13$^{\circ}C$, based on the depth of air cell. were acceptable by about 10 days of storage, but on the other physico-chemical tests by about 7 days. Egg samples stored at room temperature(about 27$^{\circ}C$) base on the depth of air cell, were acceptable by about 5 days of storage ; on the specific gravity by 4 days ; and on the egg yolk coefficient and pH of the egg yolk and egg white by 3 days. The results of this study showed that egg stored at 5$^{\circ}C$ were considered acceptable by 10 days of storage ; at 13$^{\circ}C$ by 7 days ; at room temperature (27$^{\circ}C$) by 3 days.
