The egg may be stuck near the cloaca, or further inside. Egg binding is a reasonably common, and potentially serious condition that can lead to infection or damage to internal tissue. The bound egg may be gently massaged out; failing this it may become necessary to break the egg in situ and remove it in parts.
Oocyte (or ovum/egg) activation is a series of processes that occur in the oocyte during fertilization. Sperm entry causes calcium release into the oocyte. In mammals, this is caused by the introduction of phospholipase C isoform zeta (PLCζ) from the sperm cytoplasm. [ 1 ]
Egg repair is the process of repairing the eggshell of a live egg, particularly for live birds as eggs may be damaged by parent birds with sharp claws that can punch holes in a fertilized egg. Eggs are repaired by gluing a piece of another egg of the same shape over the top. [1] Cracked eggs can be repaired by applying white glue. Broken or ...

Egg-freezing may be used in this case to preserve eggs as opposed to Oocyte cryopreservation. [ clarification needed ] [ citation needed ] Those undergoing treatment with assisted reproductive technologies who do not consider embryo freezing an option often look towards Oocyte cryopreservation as an alternative option.
Liquid egg whites cost a bit more than a carton of eggs, but in some cases they can be cost-effective, particularly if you're only using egg whites and discarding the yolks, says Le Mire.
Hold the egg in one hand and crack the middle of it against the side of a bowl. Once the crack is significant enough, separate the shell with your hand and let the egg white and yolk slide out.
The zona pellucida is a translucent matrix of cross-linked glycoprotein filaments that surrounds the mammalian oocyte and is 6.5–20 μm thick depending on the species. Its formation, which depends on a conserved zona pellucida-like (ZP) module that mediates the polymerization of egg coat components, [2] is critical to successful fertilization. [3]
