the aim of the study was to evaluate the effect of storage and temperature on egg physical quality in hyline chickens line. a total of 150 eggs from college of natural resources farm were sampled for the present experiment. about 70 eggs each were stored in home refrigerator (temperature, 7.46±0.23 ˚c; relative humidity, 24.80±0.05%) and room temperature (temperature, 22.98±1.12 ˚c; relative hu...

The quail raising in Brazil has increased through the last years and the incubation procedures are important to maintenance and improvement of quail egg production. To obtain a sufficient number of eggs to fill an incubator, eggs are usually accumulated in storage over a period from 1 day up to 3 weeks before incubation. The objective of this research was to verify the effect of egg storage on ...

Semen collection evaluation and addition of preservatives to increase storage period of sperm are essential for successful artificial insemination. This study was conducted on 4rams (2 Ghezel Merinos and 2 Merinos Moghani) to evaluate the effect of two diluents in Khalatposhan research station. Average age of rams was 3 years. Rams were trained to serve the artificial insemination and semen sam...

Fecal analyses are becoming increasingly important for equine establishments as a means of parasite surveillance and detection of anthelmintic resistance. Although several studies have evaluated various egg counting techniques, little is known about the quantitative effects of pre-analytic factors such as collection and storage of fecal samples. This study evaluated the effects of storage tempe...

Egg storage beyond 7 d is associated with an increase in incubation duration and a decrease in hatchability and chick quality. Negative effects of prolonged egg storage may be caused by changes in the embryo, by changes in egg characteristics, or by both. An adjustment in storage air composition may reduce negative effects of prolonged egg storage because it may prevent changes in the embryo an...

The study was conducted to determine the effect of varying protein levels and preservation method on internal egg qualities of Japanese quails. A total of 180 birds were randomly allotted into three dietary treatments in a completely randomized design (CRD) replicated six times. A factorial arrangement of 3x4x4 which involves 3 protein levels, 4 storage method and 4 time intervals was designed ...

a seven-week trial was carried out to investigate the possibility of enriching eggs with vitamin e, inorganic and organic selenium added to the laying hen’s diet and lipid stability of enriched eggs during storage. seventy two hy-line w-36 hens were divided into six equal groups. each groups received one of the treatment diets which included control, 0.4 mg/ kg sodium selenite or selenium yeast...

Nutritional and environmental conditions influence broiler flock performance. Besides these factors, other less-well-understood factors, such as incubating egg characteristics, affect the embryonic life of chicks. This study demonstrated that egg storage depressed egg albumen Haugh units (HU) and chick quality; these effects of storage were greater in egg and chicks from old breeders. Absolute ...
