Variability of Thick Albumen in Fresh-Laid Eggs
Poultry Science, 1934 Abstract GRADES of eggs are based, at least in part, on the interior quality, and every egg that grades below first grade represents an economic loss that increases as the grade lowers. These lower grades are in a large measure responsible for the wide difference in price paid by the consumer.
