Point of zero charge of weathered forsterite
R.W. Luce, George A. Parks
1973, Chemical Geology (12) 147-153
The point of zero charge of forsterite shifts from an estimated 8.9 for the unaltered mineral to 8.4 and 8.0, respectively, after being weathered artificially for 1 h and 4 h. These results corroborate the presence of magnesium-deficient surfaces on the weathered...

Hatchability tests with eggs from captive wood ducks
Harold A. Doty
1972, Poultry Science (51) 849-853
The effect of diet and artificial incubation on fertility and hatchability of wood duck (Aix sponsa) eggs and survival of young was measured. Hatchability of eggs from hens fed a diet containing 37 percent protein was increased significantly (P<0.05) over that of hens fed a diet containing 17 percent protein. Hatchability was...
The effect of embryonic development on the thickness of the eggshells of the coturnix quail
J.F. Kreitzer
1972, Poultry Science (51) 1764-1765
The average thickness of the shells from 75 unincubated coturnix quail eggs was found to be 0.193 mm. This was 7.3 percent greater than the average thickness (0.179 mm.) of the shells from 60 fully incubated eggs from the same hens. The two sets of eggs were collected...
