1. EGG INOCULATION The fertile hen’s egg can be used to cultivate and propagate various types of viruses. Because of the ability to alter their tropism and to adapt to a new host species‚ many viruses become capable of growing in chick embryo tissues wherein they frequently attain a much higher concentration than in the tissues of the natural host. STRUCTURE OF AN EGG The extra-embryonic membranes of the chick embryo arise from three germinal layers: the endoderm‚ mesoderm and ectoderm

cross their mind. In the past‚ animal derived food products have been linked to but not restricted to such illnesses as diabetes‚ osteoporosis‚ heart disease‚ and even cancer. Due to the high demand for food production such as meat‚ poultry‚ dairy‚ and eggs‚ an animal’s quality of life has gone down dramatically in the past years. What does that mean?
