New optical technique uses light to reveal internal contents of chicken eggs
Scientists have demonstrated a non-invasive technique that uses light to reveal the hidden contents of chicken eggs, potentially helping to curb the meat industry's practice of killing billions of male chicks at birth.
A non-invasive technique that uses light to reveal the hidden contents of chicken eggs could allow you to know the sex of chicks before birth and help stop the practice of killing millions of them at birth if they are males.
Shining light into unhatched eggs could allow for chicken 'gender reveals'
Scientists have demonstrated a noninvasive technique that uses light to reveal the hidden contents of chicken eggs, potentially helping to curb the meat industry's practice of killing billions of male chicks at birth. The study, published in Newton, found that when light enters an intact bird eggshell, it bounces back and forth many times, with photons traveling as far as 2 meters (6.6 feet) within a chicken egg's tiny, 4-centimeter (1.6-inch) i…
