Egg PG(Phosphatidylglycerols(egg)) is one of the major phosphatidylglycerols of food and biological tissues, often found in the membranes of bacterial and animal cells, and serves as an anionic phospholipid substrate in the sPMCA, reaction.

Ceramide (Egg, Chicken) plays a major role in the anabolic and catabolic pathways of sphingolipid. Ceramide (Egg, Chicken) stimulates many cell differentiation, growth inhibition, cell senescence and apoptosis.

Glycerophospholipids, cephalins (Phosphatidylethanolamines (egg)) are a mixture of phosphatidylethanolamines isolated from eggs, with various fatty acyl groups at the sn-1 and sn-2 positions. Glycerophospholipids and cephalins can be completely hydrolyzed to obtain 1 mol of glycerol, phosphoric acid, ethanolamine and 2 mol of fatty acids. Phosphatidylethanolamines play a role in membrane fusion and disassembly of contractile rings during cell division, regulating membrane curvature. Phosphatidylethanolamines are able to transmit infectious prions without the help of any proteins or nucleic acids. One of the main roles of Phosphatidylethanolamines in bacterial membranes is to disperse the negative charges caused by anionic membrane phospholipids.

Fervenulin is isolated from a nematicidal actinomycete Streptomyces sp. CMU-MH021 with nematicidal activity. It also inhibits egg hatch and J2 mortality of M. incognita (MICs: 30 μg/mL and 120 μg/mL, respectively).

Paraherquamide E is a fungal metabolite originally isolated from P. charlesii with anthelmintic and insecticidal activities. It is lethal to C. elegans (LD50 = 6 μg/ml). Paraherquamide E is also lethal to O. fasciatus (LD50 = 0.089 μg/nymph). Oral administration of paraherquamide E (0.5-4 mg/kg) reduces T. colubriformis fecal egg count in gerbils.

Aspergillimide is a fungal metabolite originally isolated from A. japonicus.1 It reduces nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) peak and slowly-desensitizing amplitudes induced by acetylcholine in silkworm (B. mori) larval neurons (IC50s = 20.2 and 39.6 nM, respectively) but has no effect on chicken α3β4-, α4β2-, and α7-containing nAChRs.2 Dietary administration of aspergillimide A (10 μg/g of diet) induces paralysis in silkworm fourth instar larvae.1 Aspergillimide A (10 and 20 mg/kg) reduces T. colubriformis fecal egg count in gerbils.3References1.

Retinol (Alphalin) and derivatives of retinol that play an essential role in metabolic functioning of the retina, the growth of and differentiation of epithelial tissue, the growth of bone, reproduction, and the immune response. Dietary vitamin A is derived from a variety of CAROTENOIDS found in plants. It is enriched in the liver, egg yolks, and the fat component of dairy products.

Ovalbumins is the main protein found in egg whites. Ovalbumins have various biological activities such as antibacterial, anticancer, antihypertensive, antioxidant and immunomodulatory activities. Ovalbumins are the most abundant proteins synthesized in estrogen- or progesterone- treated fallopian tubes. Ovalbumins are commonly used as markers to study hormone control of gene expression in fallopian tubes.
