The greenhouse emissions footprint of free-range eggs.
Eggs are an increasingly significant source of protein for human consumption, and the global poultry industry is the single fastest-growing livestock sector. In the context of international concern for food security and feeding an increasingly affluent human population, the contribution to global greenhouse-gas (GHG) emissions from animal protein production is of critical interest. We calculate...
متن کاملElevated PCDD/F levels and distinctive PCDD/F congener profiles in free range eggs.
Chicken eggs are one of the most important foods in the human diet all over the world, and the demand for eggs from free range hens has steadily increased. Congener-specific analyses of 17 polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins and dibenzofurans (PCDD/Fs) were performed on 6 free range and 12 caged chicken egg samples collected in Taiwan. The mean level of PCDD/Fs in the free range egg samples was 5...
متن کاملChemical residues in poultry and eggs produced in free- range or organic systems
Residues in poultry arise from accidental or intended exposure to chemicals. The exposure routes are by oral ingestion (feed, water, soil and preening), by inhalation, by dermal absorption or by injection. Chemical contaminants are not a major issue in the principles of organic or free-range systems. Risk management of chemicals has not been addressed widely and if so the attention was focused ...
متن کاملRange-Free Localization
Advances in micro-electro-mechanical systems have triggered an enormous interest in wireless sensor networks (WSN). WSN are formed by large numbers of densely deployed nodes enabled with sensing and actuating capabilities. These nodes have very limited processing and memory capabilities, limited energy resources and it is envisioned that they will be mass produced, to reduce costs. Several chal...
متن کاملRange free Localization Mechanism using Beacon node Range Level
The mechanism for finding the position of sensor node is crucial for many sensor network applications. Most sensor networks which can tolerate coarse accuracy look range free localization mechanism as its solution. We have proposed a novel algorithm where beacon nodes are randomly distributed and sensor nodes estimates the beacon nodes at different levels according to signal strength. We determ...
