The Impact of Laying Hen Hybrids and Cage Density on Keel Bone Damage
The aim of this study was to examine the effect of cage density and hybrid variety on keel bone damage in laying hens. Methods: In this study, two different hybrids (Hy-line Brown, HB; Isa Tinted, IT) were used and 3 different cage densities low (750 cm2/hen), medium (535.71 cm2/hen) and high (375 cm2/hen) were applied.

The BMDs of several body regions are associated with age and sex, with variations in the rate of change, age at first change, and age‐related trends depending on the anatomical site and sex. The BMDs of L1 and L2 are generally significantly lower than those of L3 and L4.

Tensile Performance of Prefabricated Tank Walls Connected Using Ultrahigh‐Performance Concrete
Prefabricated tank structures are a widely used form of industrialized construction, yet the behavior of connections between precast segments remains insufficiently explored. Since the mechanical properties of these connections govern the structural performance of prefabricated tanks, this study introduces a novel joint detail employing cast‐in‐place ...

Caffeine, a widely consumed stimulant, has emerged as a recurring and persistent contaminant in aquatic environments, including surface water, groundwater and wastewater effluents. Its continuous presence poses ecological risks due to its bioactivity and resistance to conventional treatment methods.
