Some research has been conducted into the causes of translucency in the past but there has been little work recently and the cause of translucency remains uncertain. This study aimed to identify the structural cause of eggshell translucency and determine if translucency correlates with bacterial penetration of eggs. | Publication Type: | Conference Publication | Conference Details: | APSS 2013: 24th Annual Australian Poultry Science Symposium, Sydney, Australia, 17th - 20th February, 2013 | Source of Publication: | Proceedings of the Australian Poultry Science Symposium, v.24, p. 162-162 | Publisher: | University of Sydney | Place of Publication: | Sydney, Australia | ISSN: | 1034-6260 1034-3466 |
