Background Anaphylaxis after vaccination is rare but significant problem since it may be fatal without prompt treatment. Proper diagnosis and identification of the causative agent is critical for management and prophylaxis of the anaphylaxis. Influenza vaccine-associated anaphylaxis (IVA) has been related to egg allergy since influenza vaccines are produced in embryonated eggs. However, patient...

BACKGROUND Children with allergy to raw egg white might tolerate low amounts of heated egg. Ovomucoid-specific IgE antibodies have been suggested to be predictors of whether children could tolerate heat-treated egg. OBJECTIVE The aim was to evaluate the clinical usefulness and added diagnostic value of measurements of IgE antibodies to egg white, ovalbumin, and ovomucoid in children with egg ...

Microbial food safety of eggs has not been thoroughly investigated in Egypt. Pseudomonas species are among the most ubiquitous bacteria in the environment that may also contaminate eggs. To investigate the microbial burden of Pseudomonas species in eggs, one hundred composite samples (6 eggs in each) of table hen and duck eggs were prepares after they were collected from different shops and sup...

Background and Objectives: Increased environmental concerns about synthetic packaging have promoted developments of novel, environmentally-friendly edible films. In the present study, the quality parameters of chicken egg coated with pectin or pectin incorporated cinnamon hydrosol was assessed. Materials and Methods: Egg chicken were coated with pectin and pectin prepared with cinnamon hydroso...

The ostrich industry experiences a high rate of embryonic mortalities during artificial incubation of eggs. Embryonic deaths were studied from data recorded on 37,740 fertile eggs incubated artificially during the 1998-2005 breeding seasons. Roughly 10,000 eggs that sustained embryonic mortalities were classified according to the stage and nature of death, i.e. before 21 days of incubation, aft...

this survey was done for constructing an egg sorting machine which could sort white eggs from fertilized eggs. egg sorting machine was constructed based on physiological properties of trout egg. fertilized eggs have much more elasticity than white or non-hatched eggs. so the hatched eggs will fly back if were hit to a solid surface. the machine divided to 5 parts including mechanical, electrica...
