Keel bone fractures affect egg laying performance but not egg quality in laying hens housed in a commercial aviary system

open access: yesPoultry Science, 2019
The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of keel bone fracture (KBF) severity and healing activity on individual productivity of laying hens. Focal hens (75 Lohmann Selected Leghorn (LSL), 75 Lohmann Brown (LB)) were housed alongside non‐focal

Low‐Velocity Impact Response of Nacre‐Inspired E‐Glass/Epoxy Composites With Varying Platelet Sizes

open access: yesPolymer Composites, EarlyView.
Impact response of nacre‐inspired E‐glass/epoxy composites with different platelet sizes. ABSTRACT This study explores the low‐velocity impact behavior of nacre‐inspired biomimetic platelet composites (NIBPC), using low‐cost E‐glass fiber in chopped strand mat (CSM) form as reinforcement and epoxy resin as the matrix.

Establishing a Model for Serious Science Game Design for Elementary Learners: A Longitudinal, Mixed Methods Study of Serious Game Design Mechanics That Facilitate Science Learning

open access: yesScience Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Immersive learning environments, such as serious educational games (SEGs), offer promising opportunities for enhancing elementary students' science learning outcomes and fostering their interest in science. These environments allow learners to explore scientific phenomena in ways traditional instruction cannot replicate.

Phenamil, an amiloride derivative, restricts long bone growth and alters keeled-sternum bone architecture in growing chickens

open access: yesPoultry Science, 2017
"Broiler-type" chickens are fast-grow-ing, heavy-bodied birds with high demands on bone quality. Phenamil increased mineralization in cultured murine mesenchymal stem cells. Phenamil effects were tested in 2 groups of weight and gender matched day-old broiler chickens (n = 13).

Cement Lines are Stiffer and Harder than Bone but Exhibit Different Mineral–Mechanics Relationships due to Thicker and Shorter Mineral Particles

open access: yesSmall Structures, EarlyView.
Bone's complex hierarchical structure contains many internal interfaces, including the cement line (CL) around osteons. This article shows that the CL is stiffer and harder than surrounding bone but has different mineral–mechanics relationships. These findings challenge the view of the CL as a soft, protective interface and provide insights for ...

The Evolution of Flightless Ratite Birds [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Birds are well known for their unique (other than bats) ability among vertebrates of flight. Through millions of years of evolution, before they were even classified as such, and for reasons and methods still largely unknown, birds evolved the ability to

Comparing isoflurane and desflurane: A prospective randomised blinded clinical trial in horses undergoing elective surgery

open access: yesVeterinary Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The recovery period is associated with the greatest risk of injury for horses undergoing anaesthesia. Recovery quality and duration can be influenced by the volatile agent. Methods This prospective, randomised blinded clinical investigation recruited 101 healthy client‐owned horses undergoing elective surgery at one UK equine ...
