Identification of Ghrelin in Fertilized Eggs of Chicken

Immunogenicity and reactogenicity of influenza subunit vaccines produced in MDCK cells or fertilized chicken eggs.

A tissue culture method using MDCK cells grown under serum-free conditions was developed to produce an inactivated influenza subunit vaccine. The first clinical data suggest it to be equal to the conventional egg-derived influenza subunit vaccine. In a double-blind controlled trial, 2 groups (n = 57 each) of adult volunteers were immunized with experimental bivalent influenza subunit vaccine de...

Identification of immunoglobulins in chicken eggs and their antibody activity.

Pronuclear Microinjection of Rabbit Fertilized Eggs

Although, the first transgenic animal was produced more than 30 years ago, there are still many factors limiting efficiency of transgenesis. One of them is the low rate of transgene incorporation into the genome of microinjected eggs. This mini-review summarizes recent research methods based on pronuclear microinjection of rabbit fertilized eggs in order to reach higher efficiency of transgene ...

Electrophoretic movement of fertilized sea-urchin eggs.

The eccentric shift of the sea-urchin egg within the fertilization membrane under an electric field was analysed by measuring the electrophoretic mobility of the isolated fertilization membrane and that of the egg deprived of the fertilization membrane. In addition, the migration speed of the egg proper was measured within the fertilization membrane under the conditions that: either (1) the mov...

of glycosaminoglycans in chicken eggs

Glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) have numerous applications in the fields of pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, nutraceuticals, and foods. GAGs are also critically important in the developmental biology of all multicellular animals. GAGs were isolated from chicken egg components including yolk, thick egg white, thin egg white, membrane, calcified shell matrix supernatant, and shell matrix deposit. Disacchari...
