Uric Acid Excretion by the Chick as an Indicator of Dietary Protein Quality

open access: yesPoultry Science, 1976
The objective of this investigation was to determine whether uric acid excretion could serve as an indicator of dietary protein quality. In the first study, 15% protein diets were formulated using either whole egg protein, soybean meal, safflower meal or casein, or the latter 3 proteins supplemented with their most limiting amino acid (methionine ...

Effect of on-farm hatching and elevated platforms on behavior and performance in fast-growing broiler chickens

open access: yesPoultry Science
: Alternative hatching systems compared to conventional hatchery-hatched systems showed positive effects on welfare of broiler chickens. In order to investigate an additional positive effect of elevated platforms, two hatching methods (on-farm [OH] vs ...

An amino-terminal extension is required for the secretion of chick agrin and its binding to extracellular matrix. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1995
Agrin is an extracellular matrix (ECM) protein with a calculated relative molecular mass of more than 200 kD that induces the aggregation of acetylcholine receptors (AChRs) at the neuromuscular junction. This activity has been mapped to its COOH terminus.

A Systematic Approach to Solving Hatchability and Chick Quality Problems

open access: yesEDIS, 1969
A program involving routine analyses of incubating eggs and hatch residue provides a powerful monitoring and diagnostic tool to breeder, broiler, and hatchery managers. This program would allow managers to stay abreast of many problems with breeder performance, egg management, and broiler grow-out.

Disruption of embryonic blood-CSF barrier in chick embryos reveals the actual importance of this barrier to control E-CSF composition and homeostasis in early brain development [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
In vertebrates, early brain development takes place at the expanded anterior end of the neural tube. After closure of the anterior neuropore, the brain wall forms a physiologically sealed cavity that encloses embryonic cerebrospinal fluid (E-CSF), a ...
