What Moves Men to Change? A Mixed‐Methods Study on Facilitators and Barriers of Lifestyle Changes in Men Seeking Fertility Care

Andrology, Volume 14, Issue 5, Page 1220-1230, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Background An unhealthy lifestyle negatively affects male fertility. Despite this, men that are part of an infertile couple often fail to improve their lifestyle and evidence on influencing factors is limited. Objectives To identify facilitators and barriers involved in lifestyle changes of men seeking fertility care and in lifestyle ...

The Effects of Eggshell Ash on Strength Properties of Cement-stabilized Lateritic

, 2012
Eggshell ash obtained by incinerating Fowls’ eggshells to ash has been established to be a good accelerator for cement-bound materials and this would be useful for road construction work at the peak of rainy seasons for reducing setting ...

Calcium Homeostasis in Pullets of Two Lines Selected for Differences in Eggshell Strength

Poultry Science, 1979
Abstract Lines were selected from the Cornell K Single Comb White Leghorn strain for two generations for high (HES) or low (LES) eggshell strength. Laying hens of both generations showed significant differences between lines in shell breaking strength.

Sustainable Glass Foams From Recycled Glass and Rice Husk Ash: Thermal Insulation Performance for Ceiling Applications

International Journal of Applied Glass Science, Volume 17, Issue 3, July 2026.
Glass foams were produced using recycled glass and rice husk ash as raw materials. After deep characterization, miniature masonry model tests demonstrated effective thermal insulation when applied as a ceiling lining. The study validates the technical and environmental feasibility of glass foams for sustainable insulating materials in building ...

Defensin‐DNA Supramolecular Complexes as a New pH‐Sensing Nanomaterial

Aggregate, Volume 7, Issue 6, June 2026.
Crocodylus porosus β‐defensin 13 (CpoBD13), a host defence peptide from the saltwater crocodile, is discovered to interact with single‐ and double‐stranded DNA to form supramolecular assemblies, termed defensin‐induced spherical complexes (DISCs).

Data from: Eggshell biliverdin concentration does not sufficiently predict eggshell coloration

, 2015
Avian eggshell coloration may have arisen due to selection on the biological, chemical, or physical properties of the pigments embedded within the eggshell, or due to selection on the coloration that emerges due to pigment deposition.

The effect of eggshell powder as an accelerator for blended cement concrete

, 2020
Blended concrete has later strength development with long maturity strength development. An accelerator is thus needed to enhance the early strength development of concrete. This paper shows the combination of ground palm oil fuel ash and eggshell powder

Candling Analysis of Egg Development in an Endangered Bird Species Crested Ibis (Nipponia nippon)

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
Using candling images from 98 eggs, we present the first detailed description of egg and embryonic development in the endangered crested ibis. We identify diagnostic features of nonviable eggs and reveal that embryo mortality is concentrated during mid‐incubation and shortly before hatching. These findings provide a standardized reference for assessing
