BACKGROUND Levels of IgE antibody to egg white of greater than 7 kIU/L are highly predictive of clinical reactivity to egg, and lower levels often require evaluation with oral food challenge (OFC) to establish definitive diagnosis. OFCs have inherent risks, and diagnostic criteria indicating high likelihood of passing would be clinically useful. OBJECTIVE We sought to determine whether the si...

Routine, upgrading, and intersecting cross-breeding strategies are three methods frequently used in poultry breeding. But, till now, comparative assessment of the effects on improvement geese economic traits with these is largely unknown. Here, using Carlos goose Zi goose, were employed compared. The main traits, including egg production capability, quality, growth performance, meat down feathe...

The aim of this study was to investigate the effect different age and plumage color on egg quality traits cholesterol levels, in addition which can be used for weight prediction Japanese quails. eggs obtained from 23-week-old original colored Jumbo quails, 39-week-old quails; 40, 20 were respectively as research material. In terms difference, when quails compared yolk weight, height, diameter h...

The present study aimed at evaluating the effect of the dietary inclusion of organic trace minerals selenium and zinc on the performance and internal and external egg quality of Japanese quails submitted to heat stress. Data on egg production, feed conversion (kg feed intake/ kg eggs and dozen eggs), egg weight, egg specific gravity, eggshell thickness and weight, Haugh unit, yolk index, albume...

Previous research has suggested that perceptual information about objects is activated during sentence comprehension [Zwaan, R. A., Stanfield, R. A., & Yaxley, R. H. (2002). Language comprehenders mentally represent the shapes of objects. Psychological Science, 13(2), 168-171]. The goal in the current study was to examine the role of the two hemispheres in the activation of such information. Pa...

 The scanning electron microscope was used to investigate the ultrastructures of the egg membrane surface (unfertilized egg) of an endemic cyprinid fish, Cyprinion tenuiradius Heckel, 1849. The eggs of this species were almost circular in shape, had a smooth surface and one type II micropyle consisting of the flat pit and a long canal in the animal polar region. The micropyle region was not fla...

Appreciated for their versatile nutritive value and functional properties, eggs are considered as an important item in human diet. Eggs are one of the most common foods available worldwide as they play an important role in human diet by providing humans with protein, lipids, minerals and vitamins in an adequate amount. Chicken breeds differ in physical and biochemical contents in terms of eggs ...

This research was taken to improve the performance of native duck. Two duck varieties, Rupali and Nageswari 6th generation were selected aiming increase their laying performances. A total 540 ducklings both genotypes hatched brooded in brooder house. Male female ducks separated marked with wing band at 12 weeks age. At 40 age, a 300 genotype on basis selection index comprising parameters age fi...
