Alternative Methods of Preparation of Soluble Keratin from Chicken Feathers
Huge amount of keratinous waste, especially birds’ feathers, demands more value-added application instead of dumping. The present work reports the results of experiments aimed at preparing soluble keratin useful for novel bioproduct formation. The effect

Stable isotope analysis provides new information on winter habitat use of declining avian migrants that is relevant to their conservation [PDF]
Winter habitat use and the magnitude of migratory connectivity are important parameters when assessing drivers of the marked declines in avian migrants. Such information is unavailable for most species.
