Aldehydes in Poultry Chiller Water

Distyrylbenzene-aldehydes: identification of proteins in water.

Three different, water soluble, aldehyde-appended distyrylbenzene (DSB) derivatives were prepared. Their interaction with different albumin variants (human, porcine, bovine, lactalbumin, ovalbumin) was investigated (pH 11). All three fluorophores exhibit graded, protein-dependent fluorescence turn-on at slightly differing wavelengths. Linear discriminant analysis (LDA) differentiated all of the...

Optimization of Water - Cooled Chiller – Cooling Tower Combinations

Water-cooled chiller systems have typically been designed around entering condenser water temperatures of 85°F with a Optimization of Water Cooled Chiller – Cooling Tower Combinations The warm water leaving the chilled water coils is pumped to the evaporator of the chiller, where the unwanted heat from the building is transferred by the latent heat of vaporization of the refrigerant. The compre...

Microbiology of broiler carcasses and chemistry of chiller water as affected by water reuse.

A study was conducted to determine the effects of treating and reusing poultry chiller water in a commercial poultry processing facility. Broiler carcasses and chiller water were obtained from a commercial processing facility which had recently installed a TOMCO Pathogen Management System to recycle water in sections 2 and 3 of two 3-compartment chillers. In this system, reused water is blended...

Water characteristics of poultry farms in shiraz surroundings

Water addition, evaporation and water holding capacity of poultry litter.

Litter moisture content has been related to ammonia, dust and odour emissions as well as bird health and welfare. Improved understanding of the water holding properties of poultry litter as well as water additions to litter and evaporation from litter will contribute to improved litter moisture management during the meat chicken grow-out. The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate how manageme...
