When consumers buy eggs, consumers should be more careful choosing the egg because there are some eggs that the quality has been decreased or the eggs are damaged and cannot be consumed anymore. This is caused by the length of egg storage time and didn’t have a tool that capable to detect the condition of the egg. People or egg breeders / entrepreneurs habit on looking the quality of eggs still use manual way, as a result it takes a long time because it must select the eggs condition one by one. The purpose of this research is to design and make the detection tool of chicken egg condition with ATmega 32 microcontroller using light sensor, so that the time efficiency and the result of egg selection becomes faster. . The use of tools is very easy and simple so that consumers or breeders / entrepreneurs can use it. Then to simplify and speed up the selection time of chicken eggs breeder or entrepreneur to distinguish good and damaged egg condition.

A study was conducted to investigate different storage conditions viz: refrigeration, oiling, washing eggs and storing in black polythene of eggs and a control which comprised eggs not treated and stored in transparent polythene bags for 20 days on local and exotic chicken eggs conditions, to determine the best storage conditions. Eggs stored in the refrigerator maintained desirable Internal quality followed by eggs intensely oiled, and Eggs stored in polythene bags. Eggs kept as control had the least desirable internal quality.For short eggs storage up to  10 days,refrigeration, oiling, washing of egg storing black polythene bags could be used while refrigeration is not necessary for egg storage beyond 10 days. Where refrigeration is not possible, oiling seems to be the best alternative for storage.

Telur terbagi atas bagian kuning dan putih yang mempunyai nilai protein yang berbeda. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui perbedaan kadar protein putih dan kuning telur dari 2 jenis telur ayam. Pada penelitian ini teknik pengambilan sampel menggunakan metode <em>purposive sampling</em>, dimana pengambilan sampel sesuai dengan persyaratan, yaitu 2 jenis telur ayam, telur ayam ras dan telur ayam kampung dengan karakteristik tidak busuk, kulit telur tanpa bercak, kulit telur berwarna coklat/putih bersih, mutu kesegaran telur penyimpanan kurang dari 1 minggu. Metode penelitian yang dilakukan yaitu analisis kualitatif protein menggunakan metode pereaksi warna biuret, sedangkan analisis kuantitatif menggunakan spektrofotometri sinar tampak. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa kadar protein pada putih telur ayam ras memiliki kadar terendah 863,3 mg/mL dan pada kuning telur ayam kampung memiliki kadar protein tertinggi 1.229,5 mg/mL, dan kadar protein putih telur ayam kampung 945,07 mg/mL, kuning telur ayam ras 930,9 mg/mL.</p><p align="center"><strong>Kata Kunci :  </strong>Protein, Telur AyamRas, Telur Ayam Kampung, Biuret, SpektrofotometriVis</p><p> </p><p><strong><em>Comparison of protein </em></strong><strong><em>level </em></strong><strong><em>in eggs </em></strong><strong><em>using </em></strong><strong><em>spectrophotometry</em></strong></p><p> </p><p><strong><em>Abstract</em></strong></p><p align="center"><strong> </strong></p><pre><em>Proteins contained in animal foods such as eggs are said to be perfect proteins.

The research method used was qualitative analysis of proteins using the biuret color reagent method, while quantitative analysis using visible spectrophotometry. The results showed that protein content in race chicken egg whites had the lowest levels of 863.3 mg/mL and in chicken egg yolks had the highest protein content of 1229.5 mg/mL, and the protein content of free-range egg white chicken 945.07 mg/mL, race chicken egg yolk 930.9 mg/mL</em></pre><pre><strong><em>Keywords: </em></strong><em>Protein, Ras-Chicken Egg, Village Chicken Egg, Biuret, Vis Spectrophotometry</em></pre>

Aims: This study was conducted to investigate the influence of different egg storage methods on egg characteristics and embryonic development of Guinea fowl (Numedia meleagris) eggs. Study Design: A Complete randomized design (CRD) was used for the experiment. Place and Duration of Study: The study was conducted at the Poultry Unit of the Department of Animal Science Education, University of Education, Winneba, Mampong campus. Methodology: A total of one hundred and eighty (180) hatching eggs were used for the experiment. The various experimental coops were labelled in accordance with their experimental treatment as paper crates (T1), vegetable oil (T2) and saw-dust (T3). Each treatment (T) had three replications (20 eggs per replicate), which gave a total of nine replications. Data collected were analyzed using General Linear Model (GLM) procedure of SAS. Results: Results showed that egg storage methods had significant (P < .05) effect on egg weight after storage, egg weight loss and embryonic development. The highest (P < .05) egg weight after storage was observed among eggs stored with vegetable oil and lower among eggs stored on paper crates. Eggs treated with vegetable oil produced very excellent (P < .05) results with lower weight loss while eggs stored with paper crates recorded the highest weight loss. Embryonic development was significantly (P< .05) higher among eggs treated with vegetable oil followed      by saw-dust with paper crates being the least. Albumen weight and yolk weight was significantly (P < .05) higher among eggs treated with vegetable oil. Similar (P < .05) albumen weight was observed for both saw-dust and paper crates. The least yolk weight was observed among eggs stored on paper crates. Conclusion: In conclusion, coating table eggs with vegetable oil could be effectively used to preserve egg quality and improve embryonic development.

An unidentified virus, responsible for an arthritic-like condition in chickens was studied by electron microscopy and other methods of viral investigation. It was characterized in chorio-allantoic membrane (CAM) lesions of embryonating chicken eggs and in tissue culture as to: 1) particle size; 2) structure; 3) mode of replication in the cell; and 4) nucleic acid type.The inoculated virus, coated and uncoated, is first seen in lysosomal-like inclusions near the nucleus; the virions appear to be uncoated in these electron dense inclusions (Figure 1), Although transfer of the viral genome from these inclusions is not observable, replicating virus and mature virus crystals are seen in the cytoplasm subsequent to the uncoating of the virions.The crystals are formed in association with a mass of fibrils 50 to 80 angstroms in diameter and a ribosome-studded structure that appears to be granular endoplasmic reticulum adapted to virus replication (Figure 2). The mature virion (Figure 3) is an icosahedral particle approximately 75 millimicrons in diameter. The inner core is 45 millimicrons, the outer coat 15 millimicrons, and the virion has no envelope.

People have been eating eggs for centuries. Records as far back as 1400 BC show that the Chinese and Egyptians raised birds for their eggs. The first domesticated birds to reach the Americas arrived in 1493 on Christopher Columbus' second voyage to the New World. Most food stores in the United States offer many varieties of chicken eggs to choose from — white, brown, organic, cage free, vegetarian, omega-3 fatty acid enriched, and more. The bottom line is that buying eggs is not as simple as it used to be because more choices exist today. This 4-page fact sheet will help you understand the choices you have as a consumer, so you can determine which variety of egg suits you and your family best.

Different seed storage methods, varying in storage temperature, moisture and/or oxygen content, were applied to commercial sugar beet seed lots from four breeding companies. After storage for 10–11 months, germination of the seed was tested in the laboratory (cold test, 10°C). In addition, the contents of active ingredients (fungicides and insecticide) were analyzed and compared with the initial contents before storage. Based on these results, a selection of the most promising storage methods was made to test plant emergence in a field experiment. This research was performed in 2015/16 and in 2016/17. In both years, two storage treatments outperformed the others: these were storage in a closed jar with the addition of moisture absorber (i.e. silica gel) at room temperature and storage at –18°C in a closed plastic bag. Using these two storage methods, seed vigour and contents of active ingredients were comparable to those in seed that had not been stored for one year. Based on the results from this study, the advice to growers for a successful storage of residual sugar beet seed was adjusted in 2017, after including some practical guidelines and considerations.
