Composition of Shell Waste from Egg Breaking Plants

A Study of the Composition of Hen’s Egg-shell Membranes

Morphological Diversity in Nanohydroxyapatite Synthesized from Waste Egg Shell : Verification and Optimization of Various Synthesis Parameters

Biomimetic rod shaped hydroxyapatite (HA) was prepared from calcined eggshell waste with a particle width of 16 nm. The method adopted mainly aimed at preparing nanosized deagglomerated biocompatible HA by eco-friendly synthesis route. The method of preparation used sucrose as a dispersing medium to enable size reduction, morphology control and ready removal of dispersing agent at a temperature...

Detection, Composition and Treatment of Volatile Organic Compounds from Waste Treatment Plants

Environmental policies at the European and global level support the diversion of wastes from landfills for their treatment in different facilities. Organic waste is mainly treated or valorized through composting, anaerobic digestion or a combination of both treatments. Thus, there are an increasing number of waste treatment plants using this type of biological treatment. During waste handling a...

Rapid and simple purification of lysozyme from the egg shell

Detection of Salmonella in Egg Shell and Egg Content from Different Housing Systems for Laying Hens

Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assay and conventional microbiological methods were used to detect bacterial contamination of egg shells and egg content in different commercial housing systems, open house system and evaporative cooling system. A PCR assay was developed for direct detection using a set of primers specific for the invasion by A gene (invA) of Salmonella spp. PCR detected the pres...
