Effect of Noni Fruit Extract on the Internal Quality, Foam Index, and Haugh Unit of the Chicken Eggs

Noni fruit extract at 6% concentration was found to be the most effective treatment for preserving egg quality over 21 days of storage, outperforming both lower concentrations and the antibiotic ampicillin in maintaining egg weight, air sac diameter, foam index, and Haugh unit values.

Quality Of Duck Eggs At Different Soaking Times In Noni Leaf Extract Stored For 15 Days

This study found that soaking duck eggs in 45% noni leaf extract for 24-48 hours maintained interior egg quality during 15-day storage, preserving yolk index, albumen index, and Haugh unit values compared to untreated controls. The antimicrobial compounds in noni leaves, including alkaloids and phenolic compounds, provided a natural preservation effect. The research explores natural preservation methods as alternatives to synthetic coatings and plastic packaging that contribute to microplastic contamination.

Efektivitas Tepung Cangkang Telur Ayam Sebagai Adsorben Dengan Variasi Ketebalan Media Untuk Menurunkan Kadar Kadmium Pada Larutan Pupuk

Chicken eggshell powder used as a filtration adsorbent at 60 cm thickness achieved the highest cadmium removal efficiency of 63.4% from fertilizer solution. However, even the optimal thickness did not reduce cadmium levels below the regulatory threshold of 0.01 mg/L set by Indonesian government standards.

Unscrambling why plastics aren't detectable in chicken eggs.

Australian researchers tested chicken eggs from four commercial production systems and backyard hens for seven common plastic polymers and found plastics were not detectable at measurable levels. The study provides reassurance about this food group while also highlighting methodological challenges in detecting microplastics in fatty matrices like egg yolk.

Microplastics contamination in eggs: Detection, occurrence and status

Researchers detected microplastics in commercially sold chicken eggs for the first time, finding an average of nearly 12 particles per egg. Most particles were spherical polyethylene in the 50 to 100 micrometer size range, and egg yolks contained more microplastics than egg whites, with cooking having no significant effect on the count. The study highlights eggs as another dietary pathway for human microplastic exposure and calls for measures to address contamination in the food supply.

Enhanced Soil Moisture Management Using Waste Green Algae-Derived Polymers: Optimization of Application Rate and Mixing Depth

Researchers synthesized water retention polymers from waste green algae and tested their effectiveness in managing soil moisture at application rates of 0-0.60% and mixing depths of 10-50 cm. The synthesized polymers achieved a swelling rate of 143.6 g/g with good reusability and thermal stability, and a 0.45% application rate combined with a 30 cm mixing depth was identified as optimal for maximizing water infiltration and minimizing evaporation in arid agricultural soils.

Does the Hydrogel: Oleogel Ratio Affect the Physicochemical Properties of Gelatin–Beeswax Bioplastic Films?

This study found that varying the ratio of hydrogel to oleogel in gelatin-beeswax bioplastic films significantly affects their thickness, solubility, tensile strength, and water vapor transmission. The optimized formulations offer a biodegradable alternative to conventional plastic food packaging, which contributes to microplastic pollution as it degrades.
