Motivation to dust-bathe of laying hens housed in cages and in aviaries

open access: yesAnimal, 2007
New housing systems for commercial egg production, furnished cages and non-cage systems, should improve the welfare of laying hens. In particular, thanks to the presence of a litter area, these new housing systems are thought to satisfy the dust-bathing ...

Threonine requirements of laying hens

open access: yesPoultry Science, 1998
In order to determine the Thr requirement of laying hens, two experiments were conducted using laying performance and plasma Thr concentration as parameters. At 29 and 39 wk of age, 100 and 600 laying hens in Experiments 1 and 2, respectively, with average BW and high egg production rate, were randomized, housed in individual cages, and given free ...

Three‐Segment Protein Labeling Using a Highly Efficient and Cysteine‐Less Split Intein Identified with Computational Prediction of Aggregation Properties

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Tandem protein trans‐splicing (PTS) assembles a protein from three segments. Expanding this technology to individually treat cysteines in each segment, for example, for chemical labeling using thiol bioconjugation, the authors identify a second, highly efficient cysteine‐less split intein.
