Chemometrics-driven prediction and prioritization of diverse pesticides on chickens for addressing hazardous effects on public health.

Journal of hazardous materials
The extensive use of various pesticides in the agriculture field badly affects both chickens and humans, primarily through residues in food products and environmental exposure. This study offers the first quantitative structure-toxicity relationship ...

Dynamics of changes in broiler spatial distribution induced by a robot with autonomous navigation along the growing cycle.

Poultry science
Welfare problems in broiler chickens are associated with accelerated growth in high density and barren environments. Encouraging broiler movement yields benefits by increasing locomotion, foraging, and environmental exploration. Robot sensors with au...

An enhancement algorithm for head characteristics of caged chickens detection based on cyclic consistent migration neural network.

Poultry science
The enclosed multistory poultry housing is a type of poultry enclosure widely used in industrial caged chicken breeding. Accurate identification and detection of the comb and eyes of caged chickens in poultry farms using this type of enclosure can en...

Nondestructive estimation method of live chicken leg weight based on deep learning.

Poultry science
In the broiler-breeding industry, phenotype determination is critical. Leg weight is a fundamental indicator for breeding, and noninvasive testing technology can reduce damage to animals. This study proposes a broiler leg weight estimation system com...

Effects of exogenous energy on synthesis of steroid hormones and expression characteristics of the CREB/StAR signaling pathway in theca cells of laying hen.

Poultry science
Energy and the cAMP-response element binding protein (CREB)/steroidogenic acute regulatory protein (StAR) signaling pathway play important roles in steroid hormone production and follicular development in hens. This present study aimed to investigate...

The potential of Spirulina platensis to substitute antibiotics in Japanese quail diets: impacts on growth, carcass traits, antioxidant status, blood biochemical parameters, and cecal microorganisms.

Poultry science
The development of antibiotic-resistant microorganisms prompted the investigation of possible antibiotic substitutes. As a result, the purpose of the current study is to assess the effect of dietary Spirulina platensis extract as an antibiotic altern...

Post-harvest biocontrol of Salmonella Enteritidis on Chicken breast meat and Shell eggs using multiphage cocktail.

Veterinaria italiana
The study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of a phage cocktail to reduce Salmonella Enteritidis contamination on perishable food items viz. chicken breast meat and shell eggs using different concentrations. Initially, four bacteriophages €P54, €P59, €P...

Developing an automatic warning system for anomalous chicken dispersion and movement using deep learning and machine learning.

Poultry science
Chicken is a major source of dietary protein worldwide. The dispersion and movement of chickens constitute vital indicators of their health and status. This is especially evident in Taiwanese native chickens (TNCs), a local variety which is high in p...

DeepSATA: A Deep Learning-Based Sequence Analyzer Incorporating the Transcription Factor Binding Affinity to Dissect the Effects of Non-Coding Genetic Variants.

International journal of molecular sciences
Utilizing large-scale epigenomics data, deep learning tools can predict the regulatory activity of genomic sequences, annotate non-coding genetic variants, and uncover mechanisms behind complex traits. However, these tools primarily rely on human or ...

A deep learning-based automated image analysis for histological evaluation of broiler pectoral muscle.

Poultry science
Global market demand for chicken breast muscle with high yield and quality, together with the high incidence rate of breast muscle abnormalities in recent years highlights the need for tools that can provide a rapid and precise evaluation of breast m...
