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

Environmental 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 ...

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

Food 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.

Calcium and Phosphorus Metabolism and Eggshell Thickness in Laying Hens Producing Thick or Thin Shells

Poultry Science, 1992
Two experiments were carried out to investigate the Ca and P metabolism of hens laying thick- (THK) or thin-shelled (THN) eggs on shell-forming days (SF) and days on which shell formation does not occur (NSF). In Experiment 1, 10 hens identified as producing THK or 10 hens producing THN eggs were offered a diet containing 3.5% Ca and .4% available P ...
