Effects of ground robot manipulation on hen floor egg reduction, production performance, stress response, bone quality, and behavior.

PloS one
Reducing floor eggs in cage-free (CF) housing systems is among primary concerns for egg producers. The objective of this research was to evaluate the effects of ground robot manipulation on reduction of floor eggs. In addition, the effects of ground ...

Combining deep learning and fluorescence imaging to automatically identify fecal contamination on meat carcasses.

Scientific reports
Food safety and foodborne diseases are significant global public health concerns. Meat and poultry carcasses can be contaminated by pathogens like E. coli and salmonella, by contact with animal fecal matter and ingesta during slaughter and processing...

Research Note: Study on the antibacterial activity of Chinese herbal medicine against Aspergillus flavus and Aspergillus fumigatus of duck origin in laying hens.

Poultry science
Aspergillus flavus and Aspergillus fumigatus were derived and identified from the ducks infected with fungi. In order to investigate the effectiveness of Chinese herbal medicines against Aspergillus flavus and Aspergillus fumigatus, in vitro antibact...

Objective scoring of footpad dermatitis in broiler chickens using image segmentation and a deep learning approach: camera-based scoring system.

British poultry science
1. Footpad dermatitis (FPD) can be used as an important indicator of animal welfare and for economic evaluation; however, human scoring is subjective, biased and labour intensive. This paper proposes a novel deep learning approach that can automatica...

Enzymatic extraction and functional properties of phosphatidylcholine from chicken liver.

Poultry science
An environmentally sustainable method to extract phosphatidylcholine (PC) from chicken liver (PCCL) and its functional properties were studied. The extraction times, enzymatic hydrolysis time, the solid-liquid ratio as well as types of enzymes (prota...

Comparative Study on the Efficacy of MF 59, ISA70 VG, and Nano-Aluminum Hydroxide Adjuvants, Alone and with Nano-Selenium on Humoral Immunity Induced by a Bivalent Newcastle+Avian Influenza Vaccine in Chickens.

Archives of Razi Institute
Newcastle disease (ND) and Avian influenza (AI) are the major problems and the most economically important viral diseases in the poultry industry; therefore, vaccination against these diseases is considered one of the most effective ways of preventio...

Decompartmentalisation as a simple color manipulation of plant-based marbling meat alternatives.

Biomaterials
Recent efforts for cell-based meat cuts focus on engineering edible scaffolds, with visual cues which are key to enhancing consumer acceptance, receiving less attention Here, we employed artificial intelligence (AI)-based screening of potential plant...

Identifying Images of Dead Chickens with a Chicken Removal System Integrated with a Deep Learning Algorithm.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
The chicken industry, in which broiler chickens are bred, is the largest poultry industry in Taiwan. In a traditional poultry house, breeders must usually observe the health of the broilers in person on the basis of their breeding experience at regul...

Time-aware deep neural networks for needle tip localization in 2D ultrasound.

International journal of computer assisted radiology and surgery
PURPOSE: Accurate placement of the needle is critical in interventions like biopsies and regional anesthesia, during which incorrect needle insertion can lead to procedure failure and complications. Therefore, ultrasound guidance is widely used to im...

An apta-aggregation based machine learning assay for rapid quantification of lysozyme through texture parameters.

PloS one
A novel assay technique that involves quantification of lysozyme (Lys) through machine learning is put forward here. This article reports the tendency of the well- documented Ellington group anti-Lys aptamer, to produce aggregates when exposed to Lys...
