In this study,two methods were used to clean fresh eggs within 12 h post partum，one of which was the new wet wiping method (hot wet wiping method and cold wet wiping method),the other was the traditional clean method (spraying method).After such processing, the shelf life of these treated eggs was analyzed.Meanwhile,the eggs without any treatment were taken as the controls.The results showed as follows: compared with the control group,the shelf-life decreased during storage for all treated eggs. In appearance,tiny white powder appeared on the shells of the eggs with spraying processing 20 d after the eggs were put into 25 ℃ thermostat. As for the internal quality,the haugh unit,weight loss rate and yolk coefficient of the eggs with wet wiping and spraying treatment, were all lower than those of the control group. According to data analysis,hot wet wiping was the best clean method,and cold wet wiping method was next to it,while the poorest was spraying method.
