EFFECT OF EGGSHELL OSTEOPONTIN PROTEIN ON SKELETAL EMBRYONIC DEVELOPMENT AND HATCHING TRAITS OF DEVELOPED CHICKEN STRAINS [PDF]

open access: yesEgyptian Poultry Science, 2017
The present study was designed to study the change of shell quality, shell strength, hatching output, calcium (ca) and phosphorus (ph) concentrations in tibia bone for embryos and hatched chicks, bone strength and some related physiological parameters as

Is the Eggshell Quality Influenced by the Egg Weight or the Breeder Age?

open access: yes, 2019
For a long time, it has been said that eggshell quality decreases as eggs increase in size, but this increase is seen as the breeder age advances. Therefore, the present study aimed to evaluate the age and egg weight effect on Cobb 500 broiler breeders ...

Inconsistent Transcriptomic Responses to Hexabromocyclododecane in Japanese Quail: A Comparative Analysis of Results From Four Different Study Designs

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology and Chemistry, EarlyView.
Abstract Efforts to use transcriptomics for toxicity testing have classically relied on the assumption that chemicals consistently produce characteristic transcriptomic signatures that are reflective of their mechanism of action. However, the degree to which transcriptomic responses are conserved across different test methodologies has seldom been ...

Effect of housing system and age of laying hens on eggshell quality, microbial contamination, and penetration of microorganisms into eggs

open access: yesCzech Journal of Animal Science, 2018
Hens of the laying hybrid ISA Brown were used in the study with the objective to evaluate eggshell quality, microbial contamination of eggshells, and penetration of microorganisms into the egg content in different housing systems (enriched cage: 60 hens,

Pulsed Light Technology in Food Safety and Preservation: Principles, Applications, and Future Directions

open access: yesFood Chemistry International, EarlyView.
Pulsed light technology uses short high‐intensity broad‐spectrum flashes (200–1100 nm) to inactivate microbes via DNA damage. It preserves food quality, extends shelf life, and works on liquids, meats, and produce, often combined with other hurdles for enhanced efficacy.

Meeting embryonic requirements of broilers throughout incubation: a review

open access: yes, 2010
During incubation of chicken embryos, environmental conditions, such as temperature, relative humidity, and CO2 concentration, must be controlled to meet embryonic requirements that change during the different phases of embryonic development.

Yolk vitamin D content and eggshell quality traits as affected by hen genotype and housing system

open access: yes, 2023
A novel approach to fortify egg with vitamin D consists in sunlight exposure of hens as they are capable of endogenous vitamin D synthesis. The present study aimed to investigate the yolk vitamin D content and the eggshell quality traits of 5 hen ...

Half a Century of Per‐ and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances in Northern Gannet Eggs: Impact of Regulations

open access: yesJournal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Per‐ and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), known as “forever chemicals”, are persistent organic pollutants that have been widely used in the industry across the globe for many decades. Their chemical stability, bioaccumulation, and toxicity pose major environmental and health risks. This study examines temporal trends in the concentrations of

Effect of Dietary Acetylsalicylic Acid on Eggshell Quality

open access: yesPoultry Science, 1991
Abstract Acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin) is an inhibitor of prostaglandin synthesis. Many soft-shelled (SS) and shell-less (SL) eggs are laid prematurely. It is hypothesized that prostaglandins may be responsible for the premature expulsion of some SS or SL eggs.

Eggshell Qualities as Indicative of Eggshell Strength for Layer Selection

open access: yes, 2018
The study aimed at investigating which of four traits is the most representative of eggshell strength (destructive eggshell thickness measurement, eggshell weight, egg specific gravity, ultrasonic measurement of eggshell thickness) and could be used for ...
