The Xanthophylls of Spirulina and Their Effect on Egg Yolk Pigmentation ,
Poultry Science, 1991 Abstract The carotenoid composition of the blue-green algae spirulina (Spirulina platensis) was determined using HPLC. Freeze-dried spirulina had a total xanthophyll concentration of 5,787 mg/kg. Adult Japanese quail were fed a pigment-free basal diet for 4 wk.

Marine Ecology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The soldier crab, Mictyris guinotae, is a dominant intertidal crustacean associated with sand flats in the vicinity of the Urauchi River estuary on Iriomote Island, Japan. We compared various aspects of its reproductive biology at two sites (the river mouth and upper reach) on exposed bare sand flats 300 m and 3000 m upstream from the mouth ...

The Relation of the Carotenoid Pigments of Feed to the Carotenoid Pigments of Egg Yolk
Poultry Science, 1937 Abstract THE work of Schunck (1903), Palmer and Kempster (1919), Kuhn and Grundmann (1933), Brockman and Volker (1934), and Gillam and Heilbron (1935) shows that the carotenoid pigments present in egg yolk consists almost entirely of xanthophyll with only a small amount of cryptoxanthin and carotene.

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract figure legend Sodium thiosulfate (STS) rescues the pronephros phenotype of pdx1 morphants through compensatory upregulation of nitric oxide (NO) metabolism. Zebrafish larvae injected with a control morpholino show the typical pronephros structure at 48 h post‐fertilization (hpf) with and without STS treatment.

Pequi peel meal in laying hen diet
Acta Scientiarum: Animal Sciences, 2016 This study evaluated the effect of pequi peel meal in the diet for laying hens on performance and egg quality. Hy-Line® Brown hens (n=160) aged 55 weeks with 1642±63g body weight were distributed in a completely randomized design with five treatments and

Pigmentation of Egg Yolks with Astaxanthin from the Yeast Phaffia rhodozyma
Poultry Science, 1980 Abstract The red yeast Phaffia rhodozyma was tested as a dietary pigment source for egg yolks of laying hens and Japanese quail. It was found that astaxanthin from broken yeast or prepared yeast oil but not from intact yeast cells was deposited in egg yolks.

Tagging Very Small Fish: Two Effective and Low Impact Methods
Journal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, Volume 345, Issue 3, Page 213-224, April 2026.ABSTRACT Identifying individuals over time and across contexts is essential in many scientific fields. There are a variety of well‐established methods for uniquely marking individuals (e.g., visible implant elastomer, barcodes, paint). However, for some species, life history stages, and/or experiments, existing methods are not sufficient.
