The layer poultry is an important activity for food production with high biological value. Measuring egg quality has great relevance to ensure safety and products consumers. Thus, the objective was evaluate physical of four laying hen’s strains. Were used 864 eggs from hens’ lines (Hisex Brown®, Hy-Line Isa Label®, Lohmann Brown®). experimental design completely randomized composed treatments (...

Background: Replacement of the gluten is one of the challenging issues in the food industry, since producing nutritious and functionally acceptable gluten-free foods is difficult. The cake is a cereal-based product that attracts the consumers due to its various flavors, long shelf-life, and relatively low cost. Considering the competition in markets and the increased demand for functional and n...

Objective: The experiment was conducted to evaluate the effect of different levels of germinated barley on performance and egg quality in laying hen. Methods: One hundred and twenty laying hens, 44-weeks old, Lohmann LSL hens were used in this experiment. Birds were assigned randomly to the groups, each of which consisted of 20 birds (4 replicate cages each containing 5 birds). The experiment w...

This study was carried out to investigate the egg production performance and egg quality characteristics of the indigenous ‎chickens reared in rural areas of two different climates of Isfahan province. Totally, 2160 indigenous chickens were studied in ‎this research. Two dominant climatic regions (cold and ‎hot) were determined for Isfahan province. In each climate, two towns and three villages...

Egg quality is a complex biological trait and a major determinant of reproductive fitness in all animals. This study delivered the first proteomic portraits of egg quality in zebrafish, a leading biomedical model for early development. Egg batches of good and poor quality, evidenced by embryo survival for 24 h, were sampled immediately after spawning and used to create pooled or replicated samp...

one hundred forty-four 26-wk-old white hy-line layers (w-36) were fed commercial diets containing 0, 1.5, 3 and 5% surplus date for three period of 28 days each to study the effects of dietary surplus date on hen performance (egg production, egg weight, egg mass, feed intake, feed conversion ratio ‘fcr’ and body weight gain) and egg quality parameters (haugh unit score, yolk colour index, yolk ...

In this experiment the effects of supplementation of the diet of laying hens with sodium selenite (SS) or selenized yeast (SY) on quality of eggs were studied. The chickens of Shaver Starcross hybrid were randomly divided at the day of hatching into 4 groups (n=12 in each group). The birds were fed from Day 1 of life till 9 months of age with diets differing in amounts and/or forms of selenium....

—The objective of the study was to evaluate the variation in embryo viability within a population of walleye Sander vitreus from an inland reservoir throughout the spawning season. Egg size, egg lipid content, and fatty acid composition were used as criteria to evaluate egg quality. Additionally, we sought to verify whether any particular size-class of females produces superiorquality eggs or w...

an experiment was conducted to evaluate the effect of dietary crude protein and methionine levels on quality and quantity of egg production. fifteen diets formulated with 3 levels of protein (13, 14 and 15%) and 5 levels of methionine (0.25, 0.28, 0.31, 0.34 and 0.37%) and fed to 420 birds in a 3×5 factorial arrangement. each diet was randomly fed to 4 replicates of 7 birds each and fed for 3 p...
