Abstract:The need to comply with animal welfare has motivated the research for non-invasive methods that allow the evaluation of poultry and eggs to be painless while providing accurate measurements. In this scenario, bioelectrical impedance was tested as a minimally invasive tool for sexing day-old chicks of two different chicken strains and for evaluating the quality of eggs submitted to different days of storage relative to their hatchability. The resistance and phase angle measured allowed the differentiation betwe… Show more
“…However, Lukaski et al (1985) and Baumgartner et al (1988) asserted that Rs holds a greater proportion than Xc in total impedance and serves as a more reliable predictor in most biological conductors. This assertion directly contradicts the observations found by Klein et al (2016) and support the decision of not using this methodology. On the other hand, Renden et al (1988) and Grimes et al (1990) described the technique placing 2 electrodes on the ventral surface of the wing and 2 on the inner thigh, or alternatively, 2 on the right thigh and 2 near the sternum.…”

“…Various approaches were explored in the development and testing of the technique. Renden et al (1988) , Grimes et al (1990) , and Klein et al (2016) introduced distinct models for applying BIA. The methodology described by Klein et al (2016) tested the BIA method by positioning each pair of electrodes on both legs of the birds displaying higher values for Xc in comparison to Rs.…”

“…Bioelectrical impedance analysis ( BIA ) is a noninvasive, safe (not exposed to ionizing radiation), easy-to-use, portable, real-time, and relatively inexpensive technique ( Collins et al, 2013 ; Lukaski 2013 ; Dittmar et al, 2015 ; Harrison et al, 2015 ; Klein et al, 2016 ).…”
