Two experiments were conducted to evaluate the effect of ascorbic acid (AA) during egg incubation on development of broiler chickens of a commercial stock. In Experiment ١, eggs with living embryos were injected at ١٥ d of incubation with ٠٫١ ml of saline solution containing either ٣ or ١٢ mg of AA per egg and uninjected control. Body weights of each treatment were determined weekly from hatch to ٦ wk of age. In Experiment ٢, the treatments at ١٥ d of incubation were as follows: ١) eggs injected with ٣ mg of AA and then cooled at ٢٢° C for ٢٤ h; ٢) eggs dipped in ٣٪ solution of AA for ٣ min and then cooled at ٢٢° C for ٢٤ h; and ٣) control. Embryo weight at ١٩ d of incubation, hatchability and body weights of the hatched chicks were determined.

Two experiments were carried out to determine the effect of flock age on egg laying pattern, floor laying, egg weight, hatchability, fertility and body weight at hatch. Eggs were collected from 32and 43 wk old Cobb 500 broiler flocks for 6 consecu tive days hourly to study egg laying pattern and floor laying (experiment 1). In experiment 2, 2916 eggs from the flock at 32 ,43 and 49 wk old were used to determine the effect of flock age on egg weight, hatchability, fertility and body weight at hatch.
Three experiments were conducted using Cobb 500 broiler breeders to determine oviposition pattern and the effect of oviposition time of eggs representing different positions in the normal egg laying sequence on egg weight , fertility , hatchability , embryonic mortality and chicken weight at hatch.
Experiment was conducted on 160 fertilized egg sterile, distributed in four groups of 40 eggs in each of them, eggs incubation in the hatchery for 12 h, and then go out and inject eggs experimental Groups (1-2-3) with a solution of tetracycline under the embryo disk.
The research was carried out on two classes of hatching eggs obtained from broiler breeder flock ( shifer starbro- Hybird ) 39 and 59 wk of age . In each class the hatching eggs were graded into three groups according to their weights. The hatchi ng eggs of each group were divided into three replicates . Eggs of all replicates were incubated in the same incubator . At hatching (115) chicks were taken from each replicate and fed in separate pen until 7 weeks of age . All conditions of housing, rearing and feeding ( vegetable diets ) were same for all birds of all replications.
This study was conducted at the laboratories of Food Science Department at the Faculty of Agriculture, Damascus University in order to study the possibility of prolonging the shelf life of chicken breast by vacuum packaging and treating with aceti c acid. Chicken breasts were immersed into a solution having 1% or 2% of acetic acid concentration for 30 sec. and packaged with vacuumed and not vacuumed sacs. Samples were preserved at 4±1 ºC for 21 days and examined after 0, 7, 14 and 21 days of refrigeration for microbiological, chemical and sensory properties. Microbiological analyses included determination of total count of bacteria, coliforms, Salmonella, anaerobic bacteria, Pseudomonas, yeasts and molds. Chemical analyses included determination of pH value and non-protein nitrogen. Sensory properties were evaluated for color, smell and texture. Results revealed that samples immersed into a solution with 1% and 2% of acetic acid concentration had affectively improved quality and sensory properties of chicken breast for more than 14 days compared with control samples and the samples treated by 2% of acetic acid with vacuum packaging had the best quality results.
