Precise heat treatment of stored eggs
Egg storage time is often unavoidable, but it always comes at a cost. Poor storage conditions inevitably lead to a decline in hatchability and egg quality. Even storing eggs at the correct conditions, but for a longer period will cause significant hatch losses.
That is where the UniStreamer™ Re-Store makes the difference. By applying precise heat treatment to stored eggs, it restores embryonic viability. The result? You can regain a substantial part of the hatch potential that would have otherwise been lost due to storage. Moreover, the eggs start incubation in a more homogeneous embryonic development stage, which positively impacts chick quality and uniformity.
Benefits
The UniStreamer™ Re-Store warms up hatching eggs for short periods during storage to restore embryonic viability. Thanks to the unique OvoScan™ technology, it guarantees a controlled, gradual and precise heating and cooling of the eggs, which is needed to ensure highly consistent results.
Inside the UniStreamer™ Re-Store, the number of viable cells is restored. This positively impacts hatch results with higher hatchability thanks to lower embryonic mortality and better overall chick quality. Moreover, the eggs will start incubation in a more homogeneous embryonic development stage, which leads to better uniformity and chick yield.
When storing eggs in the traditional way, hatchery staff needs extra time to deal with the variations that come with the incubation of short-stored and long-stored eggs. With UniStreamer™ Re-Store, that effort is not needed, which makes incubation planning much easier.
What you can expect
- Higher hatchability
- Better overall chick quality and uniformity
- Improved post-hatch performance
- Very accurate, easy and error-free process
- Excellent results with different avian species and varying egg ages
Engineering inspired by nature
You have just read how Re-Store boosts embryonic viability through precise heat treatment. But did you know it is inspired by nature?
The mother hen lays one egg per day until her nest is complete. As a result, the older eggs are warmed every time she returns to her nest to lay the next egg. Just as the hen instinctively warms her eggs during clutch building, our Re-Store incubator applies precise heat treatment cycles during egg storage – restoring embryonic viability and increasing hatch success. Watch the video to see how nature is embedded in Petersime’s DNA.
