QuEChERS method was applied and validated for the multi-residue analysis of pesticides in eggs and egg products. The method includes extraction with buffered acetonitrile and clean-up with dispersive sorbents, followed by LC-MS/MS analysis. The validation parameters were used based on the guideline of SANCO/12495/2011. Recoveries were within the range of 71-108%, and the relative standard deviations were 2-13% at the 3 different concentrations evaluated for eggs and egg products. The limits of quantification for the target compounds ranged from 0.3 to 6 ng/g. Monitoring of 100 domestic eggs and 50 imported egg products were performed to verify the adaptability in real samples. No samples contained residues exceeding the maximum residue limit (MRL). Carbendazim, dimethoate, and pirimicarb were each found in egg yolks at the level of 2 ng/g, in the same sample, well below their MRLs of 50-100 ng/g.

Spermatogenesis in Lepidoptera holds significant importance due to its unique process of dichotomous spermatogenesis, yielding eupyrene and apyrene spermatozoa through a complex molecular mechanism. While E3 ubiquitin ligases are known to play vital roles in spermatogenesis across various processes, their functions in dichotomous spermatogenesis remain less known. We utilized the RNAi, biochemical and microscopic procedures to unravel the function of in dichotomous spermatogenesis of adult .

This study investigated the effects of sequential high-pressure homogenization followed by heat treatment on the physicochemical properties and lipidomic characteristics of liquid egg (LE) and liquid egg yolk (LEY). After treatment, homogenization and heat-treated liquid egg (H-LE) and homogenization and heat-treated liquid egg yolk (H-LEY) exhibited significantly enhanced flowability and thermal stability, with gelation temperatures increasing from 65°C to 82°C for H-LE and from 82°C to 95°C for H-LEY. In vitro digestion analysis revealed that H-LE demonstrated a 14.
