the present research was conducted to analyze the genetic structure of egg quality traits in japanese quail. external and internal egg quality traits were assessed on 1706 eggs of laying japanese quail. eggs were collected for 4 days at the quaits 10 weeks of age. the investigated traits were analyzed through univariate as well as multivariate animal models employing restricted maximum likeliho...

BACKGROUND Supplying egg-laying hens with different forage materials may influence egg production and quality. The aim of this study was to examine the short-term effects of standard feed plus 70 g day(-1) per hen of three coloured carrot varieties (orange, yellow and purple) as forage material in comparison with a standard feed control on egg production, egg yolk colour and deposition of carot...

OBJECTIVES Atherosclerosis is the main leading cause of cardiovascular diseases. The purpose of this study was to assess the potential preventive effect of egg yolk HDL on the atherosclerosis plaque formation. MATERIALS AND METHODS Thirty rabbits were divided into five groups: A; normal diet, B; hyper-cholesterolemic diet, C; hypercholesterolemic + 400 mg/kg egg yolk HDL D; hypercholesterolem...

The present research was designed to examine the genetic analysis of egg weight, egg yolk weight and egg albumen weight of Bovan Neva Black laying hens at 25, 51 and 72 weeks. For this purpose, thirty birds were selected from the layer flock in the Babcock University Teaching and Research Farm. They were individually housed in separate labeled battery cage. A total of thirty eggs were collected...

The aim of this paper was to investigate the effects microwave radiation on viability Paenibacillus larvae spores and study relationship between power consumption, exposure time number in examined suspensions. Sterile distilled water suspensions were made using larval detritus, contain tens, hundreds thousands spores. all dilutions gradually exposed a 170, 510 850 W. In cases, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 10...

the aim of this study was to develop a diet suitable for obtaining quail eggs enriched with omega-3 fatty acids with minimum disadvantages on egg quality. this 12 weeks study was performed to investigate the effects of fish oil (fo) and savory (satureja khuzestanica) essential oil (eo) supplementation in diets of laying quails at different ages, on their performance, egg quality, fatty acid com...

in this experiment, a total of 128 hy-line w36 hens at 63 weeks of age were used. the hens were put at random into 4 treatment groups (4 replicates and 32 hens per treatment) and were fed four different diets: three diets with different levels of spirulina (1.5, 2.0 and 2.5%) and one control group based on wheat and soybean meal. all birds were housed in commercial cages, had ad libitum access ...

Results In our cohort, 48% of patients were sensitized to egg white and yolk, while 52% were reacting to egg white exclusively. In allergen microarray, Gal d 1 and 2 were identified as major allergens for all patients, whereas Gal d 3-5 displayed high sensitization prevalence only in patients reacting to both egg components. Mean egg white-specific IgE was significantly higher in patients displ...

Of 92 drug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis strains isolated from sputum specimens, 86 showed growth in two types of 7H12 broth, one with egg yolk and the other without egg yolk. In addition, two strains grew only in plain 7H12 broth without yolk, and four others were recovered only in the medium supplemented with egg yolk. The radiometrically detected growth was higher in the presence of e...

BACKGROUND Burn injury is a major cause of death and disability worldwide. A domestic medication in wound healing, preventing infection and reduction of scar tissue as well as availability is still an important challenge. This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of yolk egg oil in treatment of burn wounds in rats. METHODS A standard 3rd degree burn wound was produced and the animals were divi...
