In Experiments 1 and 2, most eggshells that were
penetrated had been penetrated by day 14 or 10 of storage,
respectively. At the end of storage, there was no significant difference
(pN0.05) in the percentage of penetrated eggs in the 1% chitosan
coated egg and the control groups. However a significantly smaller
(pb0.05) percentage of the eggs was penetrated in the 2% chitosan
coated group of eggs than in the control group
