Journal of Clinical Investigation, 2015 The oocyte is the sole source of the female genetic material that will be fertilized by sperm to form an embryo. Many extrinsic and intrinsic factors are critical for oocyte development and survival; however, these mediators are incompletely understood. In this issue of the JCI, Weinberg-Shukron et al. uncover a novel recessive missense mutation in the

Polymorphisms in Ion Transport Genes Are Associated with Eggshell Mechanical Property. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Eggshell mechanical property traits such as eggshell breaking strength (ESS), eggshell thickness (EST) and eggshell weight (ESW) are most common and important indexes to evaluate eggshell quality in poultry industry.

Journal of King Saud University: Engineering Sciences, 2023 Eggshell concrete is an innovative green material that helps to recycle eggshell waste while reducing the environmental harm caused by excessive cement production. However, recent studies on eggshell concrete are limited, and the outcomes may vary due to

Bending Deformation Behavior of Eggshell and Eggshell–Polymer Composites [PDF]
Journal of Composites Science, 2023 Deformation behavior of the composite “eggshell–polymer plomb” was examined under bending. Hen eggs were taken as a biological material for experiments. It was shown that a viscoelastic polymer coating does not change the type of deformation behavior of the composite, given that the eggshell continued to be brittle despite its mechanical ...

Transcriptomic analysis of the liver in aged laying hens with different eggshell strength
Poultry Science, 2023 : Eggshell is composed of a very ordered and mineralized structure and is important for egg quality. Eggshell strength is particularly important because of its direct association with economic outcomes and egg safety.

Genome-wide association study exploring the genetic architecture of eggshell speckles in laying hens
BMC Genomics, 2023 Background Eggshell speckle phenotype is an important trait in poultry production because they affect eggshell quality. However, the genetic architecture of speckled eggshells remains unclear.

WormBook, 2018 In all animals, oocytes are surrounded by an extracellular matrix upon fertilization. This matrix serves similar purposes in each animal. It functions to mediate sperm binding, to prevent polyspermy, to control the chemical environment of the embryo, and to provide physical protection to the embryo as it developes. The synthesis of the C.
