Natural Products of Plants and Animal Origin Improve Albumen Quality of Chicken Eggs [PDF]
Frontiers in Nutrition, 2022 Albumen quality is recognized as one of the major yardsticks in measuring egg quality. The elasticity of thick albumen, a strong bond in the ovomucin-lysozyme complex, and excellent biological properties are indicators of high-quality albumen.
