Hypoxic Incubation Chamber
<p>This paper describes the design, manufacturing, and testing of a novel controllable hypoxic incubator with fully functional oxygen gas control and temperature control in a humid environment. On the current market, a majority of the few hypoxic incubators use pre-mixed gas that does not offer …

INFLUENCE OF EMBRYONIC METABOLIC RATE AND INCUBATION TEMPERATURE ON INCUBATION LENGTH VARIATION IN NEOTROPICAL PASSERINES
… for example, does not explain variation in incubation periods among neotropical passerines. Incubation temperature can explain some variation in developmental periods, but substantial variation remains unexplained. Here we examine two previously untested alternatives. Adult metabolic rates …

Consequences of avian parental incubation behavior for within-clutch variance in incubation temperature and offspring behavioral phenotypes
… early developmental environment is through egg incubation. Not only is incubation necessary for hatching success, but small changes of <1C in average incubation temperature have large effects on post-hatch offspring morphology and physiology. However, incubation is energetically costly and …

Eggs, incubation and hatching asynchrony in gulls
… can influence the embryonic development through incubation behaviour because avian embryos develop using parent’s body heat. Although previous studies assumed that incubation behaviour influences hatching patterns, few studies have studied the effect of incubation behaviour during egg-laying and …

Sexual conflict and division of labour during incubation
… extra-pair copulation (EPC) opportunity during incubation in a biparentally incubating passerine, the Zebra Finch, Taeniopygia guttata. Both experiments were based on a ‘crossover design’, which took place over two breeding attempts: in the first attempt half the pairs experienced a treatment …

Headquarters on campus : student entrepreneurship and the ambivalence of incubation
… MIT administration and student government to the incubation of student ventures. Drawing from the MIT case, we can better understand the specifics of student entrepreneurship in the context of clubs as well as the complexities it introduces to the administration of institutions of higher education.

Data Exchange for Artificial Intelligence Incubation in Manufacturing Industrial Internet
… quality have posed significant challenges to the incubation (i.e., training, validation, and deployment) of AI models. In the offline training phase, training data with poor quality will result in inaccurate AI models. In the online training and deployment phases, high-volume and informative-poor …

Assessment of dairy product quality by selective incubation and rapid techniques
A study was conducted to investigate the use of bacterial numbers and metabolites for their Value in predicting potential shelf-life of pasteurized fluid milk. The study consisted of two phases. In the first phase, chemical inhibitors were evaluated for their ability to allow growth of …

Incubation Temperature Affects Body Size, Energy Reserves, and Sex of Hatchling Alligators
<p>I investigated the effects of incubation temperature, clutch, and sex on the morphometries, mass, and energy reserves of hatchling alligators. The effect of incubation temperature on hatchling genitalia was also studied. I evaluated and tested a method for determining the sex of hatchling …
