Rapid, portable, and sensitive detection of tetracycline (TC) is crucial for the environment and human health. In this study, we developed carbon dots (CDs)-based fluorescent molecularly imprinted photonic crystal hydrogel (FMIPH) strips for TC detection in animal-derived foods. CDs emit...

Microbial fermented feed (MFF) has been demonstrated to improve nutritional status as well as promote animal health. However, only a few studies have focused on its effect on the flavor of animal products, and the potential underlying mechanisms remain poorly understood. Herein, egg amino acids and ...

When applied at growing phase, lighting program aims to obtain quails with body weight and physiological maturity suitable for the beginning of laying. This study evaluated lighting programs at growing phase on performance, sexual maturity and egg quality of meat quail breeders (Coturnix coturnix)...

Lentil proteins have shown potential as substitutes for animal proteins in foam-based food products, although the mechanisms by which the proteins stabilize the air-water interface are largely unexplored. Here, we systematically studied the air-water interfacial behavior (including adsorption...

Sensitive and visual determination of fluoroquinolone antibiotics (FQs) is of great significance since their abuse and inappropriate handling can be problematic. Herein, we propose a lanthanide covalent organic framework fluorescence sensing system (Tb@COF-Ru) with visualization capability to...

This study aimed to assess impacts of early in ovo injection (at 10 days of incubation) of copper (sulfate, acetate, or nanoparticles) on histomorphometric parameters of small intestine and growth performance of post-hatched chicks. Fertile eggs (n = 462) were distributed to seven groups (3...

1. In a non-cage environment, goose eggs are buried in litter and goose feathers, leading to contamination and discolouration. Such random distribution of goose eggs poses a great challenge to the recognition and location for intelligent picking by robot systems on farm. 2. In order to assist in...

This study aimed to determine the skin protective effect of egg yolk phosvitin phosphopeptides (PPPs). Phosvitin was separated from the egg yolk, and PPPs were produced using high-temperature and mild-pressure (HTMP) pretreatment and enzyme-sterilization hydrolysis combinations. The elastase and...

The aim of the study was to assess the influence of shell defects on the quality of eggs after storage. The study material consisted of 1,800 brown-shelled eggs from cage rearing system which were candled on the day of laying to determine the shell quality. Eggs with the 6 most common shell defects ...

An extensive field study was made in subtropical hot humid climate of north-east India to identify the most influencing climatic and human-made environmental factors and their effects on hatchability of eggs and survivability of indigenous ducklings hatched through indigenous broody hen (chicken)...
