THE RECOVERY OF SALMONELLAE FROM EGG PRODUCTS WAS STUDIED, BY USE OF THREE DIFFERENT ENRICHMENT PROCEDURES: (i) selenite broth, (ii) selenite broth containing 10% sterile feces, and (iii) the lactose pre-enrichment procedure. Brilliant Green Agar was used throughout as the recovery medium. Although the lactose pre-enrichment methodology promoted Salmonella recovery from samples containing small...

Extraction of oil from dried distillers grains has become a common practice among US ethanol producers. The valuable oil has been diverted to markets other than poultry feed, leaving new dried distillers grains with solubles (DDGS) products higher in fiber and purportedly lower in ME. This study compared 3 DDGS products with 10.3, 7.3, or 5.2% ether extract, respectively, with a corn-soy contro...

Concerns have been expressed regarding the safety of using biotechnology derived feeds in diets of livestock animals and in regard to human consumption of products from species fed transgenic crops. As a consequence, a large number of poultry nutrition studies have been conducted to evaluate the wholesomeness of transgenic crops by examining performances of animals during growth or egg laying. ...

Eggs and egg products form an integral part of the food chain. As such, research into egg structure, function, and production has made an important contribution to the field of poultry science. The past decade has seen significant advances in avian egg science research, with work supplementing our understanding of the nature of the avian egg, and its biological, chemical, and physical propertie...

Congenital malformations of neonates are one of the adverse effects of diabetic pregnancy which can be prevented by supplementation of vitamin E and C. The survived neonates usually are at higher risk to diabetes, hypertension, dyslipidemia and cardiovascular diseases that may possibly be prevented through antioxidants administration. In view of this information, the efficacy of modified poultr...

Abstract Food packaging is needed to reduce the risk of food spoilage caused by physical, chemical, and biological factors. Based on recent development, it necessary use a type that can be applied as while still having durability meet feasibility level sterilization process. This study aims identify character gudeg packaged with HBRG procedure. In this study, heat penetration, proximate metal c...

Livestock products provide essential micro-nutrients and animal protein to rural residents. Upgrading the consumption pattern of livestock is not only crucial for improving residents’ health quality life but also achieving food security a healthy China under “Great Food View” development concept. To identify characteristics determinants structure in China, we used Logit model empirically analyz...

Egg is the food that most often causes allergy in young Spanish children, with an incidence of 2.4-2.6% in the first 2 years of life. The prevalence of sensitisation and allergy to egg is greater in children with allergy to cow's milk and in those suffering atopic dermatitis. The protein component from egg white is the cause of the allergic response in child. The major allergens in egg white ar...

In animals, before the zygotic genome is expressed, the egg already contains gene products deposited by the mother. These maternal products are crucial during the initial steps of development. In Drosophila melanogaster a large number of maternal products are found in the oocyte, some of which are indispensable. Many of these products are RNA molecules, such as gene transcripts and ribosomal RN...

The U.S. Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) tests for Salmonella in meat, poultry, and egg products through three regulatory testing programs: the Pathogen Reduction-Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point (PR-HACCP) program, the ready-to-eat program for meat and poultry products, and the pasteurized egg products program. From 1998 through 2003, 293,938 samples collected for these tes...
