Calcium Intake Level as Factor of Influencing of the Eggshell Qualities in Laying Hens

open access: yesBulletin of University of Agricultural Sciences and Veterinary Medicine Cluj-Napoca: Food Science and Technology, 2017
The experiments were carried out on four groups of Hy-Line var. Brown hens (n = 350 each) monitored from 20 to 68 weeks of age. The hens were fed on diets which provided the following calcium intakes (%): 2.56 and 3.12 in groups I and II, respectively, 3.

A Comprehensive Review of Adsorbents for Rare Earth Separation: Design, Synthesis, Adsorption Performance, and Mechanisms

open access: yesRare Metals, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rare earth elements (REEs) play an irreplaceable role in modern technology and industry. However, due to the highly similar physicochemical properties among REEs, their separation remains a significant challenge. Additionally, REEs often exist in low‐concentration solutions, making efficient REE recovery an urgent task.

Doing More With Less: Cutting Food Loss and Waste in the EU and Its Impact on Food Security

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In September 2025, the European Parliament and Council signed the law of the Revision of the EU waste framework directive, which includes also reductions for food loss and waste (FLW). This comes at a time of concern over the EU's strategic autonomy for its agrifood sector.

On the heritability of blue-green eggshell coloration [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Avian blue-green eggshell coloration has been proposed as a female signal of genetic or phenotypic quality to males. However, little is known about the relative importance of additive genetic and environmental effects as sources of eggshell

Ethological investigation on moulting laying hens in organic farming [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Introduction Organic egg farmers mainly rely on the same hybrids, breeding techniques and production schemes as conventional egg producers. This includes annual replacement of the laying hens.

Egg discrimination along a gradient of natural variation in eggshell coloration [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Accurate recognition of salient cues is critical for adaptive responses, but the underlying sensory and cognitive processes are often poorly understood. For example, hosts of avian brood parasites have long been assumed to reject foreign eggs from their ...

Relationship of Eggshell Ultrastructure and Shell Strength to the Soundness of Shell Eggs

open access: yesPoultry Science, 1996
Factors affecting the soundness of shell eggs are of primary concern to egg processors due to substantial financial losses from cracked and leaker eggs. Ultrastructural analyses were used to examine the palisade layer width and mammillary knob layer thickness of sound, cracked, and leaker eggshells. Subjective observations were also made.
