This study was undertaken to determine if pre-storage heating of broiler breeder eggs, stored for long periods, would improve the hatchability and chick quality. A total of 2400 broiler breeder eggs were obtained from a 46 weeks old commercial flock. Eggs were distributed in a 3 x 4 factorial design, with three pre-storage heating durations (0, 6, and 9 hours at 37.5° C and 56% RH) and four sto...

The effects of incorporating conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) and fish oil in laying hen diets on egg CLA, n-3 fatty acid, tocopherol, and TBA reactive substances (TBARS) during 60 d of storage were investigated. Hens were fed corn-soybean meal-based diets containing 3% yellow grease (YG), 2.75% yellow grease + 0.25% CLA (YG-CLA), 2.5% yellow grease + 0.25% CLA + 0.25% fish oil (YG-CLA-FO), or 2....

Wang Q., Jin G., Wang N., Guo X., Jin Y., Ma M. (2017): Lipolysis and oxidation of lipids during egg storage at different temperatures. Czech J. Food Sci., 35: 229–235. The aim of this study was to investigate lipolysis and lipid oxidation of stored eggs at different temperatures (4 and 22°C) by evaluating the changes in physicochemical index, lipid profiles, enzymatic activity, and oxidative i...

The viability of Aedes aegypti eggs was assessed in the Amazon region. The eggs were maintained under different conditions: indoors (insectarium) and outdoors (natural environment), as well as in different storage types (plastic cup, paper envelope, plastic bag) for different days. Egg viability was measured as the mean of hatchings observed from egg-bearing sheets of filter paper immersed in w...

The aim of this study was to evaluate the viability of periodontal ligament cells of avulsed teeth in three different storage media. Forty-five mature premolars extracted for orthodontic therapeutic purposes were randomly and equally divided into three groups according to the storage medium: milk (control), rice water and egg white. After placing extracted teeth for 30 min in storage media, the...

objectives: this study was undertaken to evaluate the viability of periodontal ligament (pdl) cells of avulsed teeth in three different storage media. materials and methods: forty-five premolars extracted for orthodontic therapeutic purposes were randomly and equally divided into three groups based on storage media used [group i: milk (control); group ii: aloe vera (experimental); group iii: eg...

iran is one of the most important rainbow trout (oncorhynchus mykiss) producing countries in the world and fingering production is the key factor for this industry. the present experiment was conducted to determine the role of the coelomic fluid in artificial fertilization and to study the interactive effect of different brood fish coelomic fluid on fertilization process during 60 min storage a...

The ability to store different insect stadia for prolonged periods provides considerable flexibility and ability to conduct experiments properly. Therefore, studies were undertaken to determine the effect of storage temperature and duration on viability of eggs of Helicoverpa armigera (Hübner). The percentage egg hatch and incubation period were significantly (P=0.01) influenced by egg age, sto...

This study was aimed at determining the effect of irradiation of shell eggs on the physiochemical and functional properties of liquid egg white during storage. Color and textural parameters of irradiated liquid egg white after cooking were also determined. Shell eggs were irradiated at 0, 2.5, 5, or 10 kGy using a linear accelerator. Egg white was separated from yolk and stored in at 4°C up to ...

The aim of the present study was to investigate the potential of a fast gas chromatography (GC) e-nose for freshness discrimination and for prediction of storage time as well as sensory and internal quality changes during storage of hen eggs. All samples were obtained from the same egg production farm and stored at 20 °C for 20 d. Egg sampling was conducted every 0, 3, 6, 9, 12, 16, and 20 d. D...
