Assay of the fungal flora of mixed poultry rations used in Egypt revealed 42 species belonging to 13 genera. The probable risk of such enormous contaminants to bird health as well as to feed were discussed. Cinnamaldehyde and O-hydroxybenzaldehyde (Salicylaldehyde) were tested for its eficiency as fungistats in concentrate rations of poultry Results revealed that these two aromatic carbonyl aldehydres are powerful inhibitors to storage fungi in such feeds at concentrations of 30 ug/kg ration for cinnamaldehyde compound and 100 ug/kg ration for salicylaldehyde compound. Treated rations were administered to LSL laying hens for 30 days experimental period. The results revealed that neither livebody weight, egg production nor blood erythrocytic, leukocytic and differential leukocytic count were significantly affected. It was concluded that these aromatic carbonyl adlehydes could be recom mended as powerful and safe inhibitors to storage fungi in mixed concentrate rations.
