Abstract: Stackable poultry container systems are described herein along with methods of using the systems in connection with the care of poultry. The stackable poultry container systems described herein may include feeder apparatus that allow for the distribution of feed to all of the containers within a stack of containers through the feeder apparatus provided in the uppermost container in the stack. The stackable poultry container systems described herein may include a floor that has waste apertures formed therein to allow waste from animals located in the container to fall through the floor to improve sanitation for the animals located in the container system. The stacks of poultry containers may include waste shields located beneath each floor such that waste falling through the floor of a container does not pass into the container located below when the containers are stacked on top of each other.

Abstract: Provided herein are insoluble particles that include polypeptides. The polypeptides may have immunogenicity that is greater than the immunogenicity of the same polypeptides when they are not present in the particle. The polypeptides may be soluble before incorporation into the particles and insoluble after incorporation into the particles. The particles may include lipopolysaccharide, wherein the lipopolysaccharide is insoluble. The particles may include a carrier. In one embodiment, a carrier is present at no greater than 0.001 mg carrier/mg particles. In one embodiment, a carrier is present at a ratio of carrier to polypeptide (weight:weight) of no greater than 0.05:1. In one embodiment, a carrier is not detectable in the particles.

Abstract: A notebook, laptop computer or tablet computer having an automated external defibrillator (AED) capability, and methods of utilizing the notebook, laptop computer or tablet computer defibrillator to treat victims of sudden cardiac arrest. Kits and methods for converting, adapting or retrofitting a common notebook, laptop computer and tablet computer to enable each to be used as an AED to treat victims of sudden cardiac arrest. A kit including an adjustable case for receiving, encompassing, adapting and converting a common notebook, laptop computer or tablet computer to enable each to be used as an AED. A kit including a slave automated external defibrillator (AED) that is joined to a common notebook, laptop computer or tablet computer to adapt, convert and enable each to be used as an AED.

Abstract: Methods and systems provide for incubating a plurality of eggs at least partially at a primary incubation location and then incubating the plurality of eggs (e.g., a plurality of single sex eggs sorted from the plurality of eggs) at least partially during transport to a secondary location.
