Effect of areas of an egg (sharp pole x equator x blunt pole) on temperature and effect of areas of an egg and initial temperature on cooling rates of Japanese quail eggs (n = 17).

Eggs were heated to 38°C and subsequently cooled at ambient temperature of 12°C. Measurements were recorded at three time intervals (immediately after heating and 530.5 ± 9.8 and 1002.3 ± 4.1 s after heating). 1 Controlled for egg mass and time of measurement 2 Controlled for egg mass 3 Interaction between areas of an egg and temperature Effect of areas of an egg (sharp pole x equator x blunt pole) on temperature and effect of areas of an egg and initial temperature on cooling rates of Japanese quail eggs (n = 17).
