Eggs spec sheets should contain the following information (divided into sections)<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Eggs are a common food, which are also incredibly nutritious as well. There are a number of important nutrients in it including vitamins A, B2, B5, B6, B12, D, E and K as well as folate, phosphorous, selenium, calcium and zinc. All of these are contained within just one boiled egg, which also contains 6 grams of protein as well as 5 grams of healthy fats.<\/p>\n

Chemical composition of egg contents<\/p>\n
1.The weight and composition of a table egg is dependent on heredity, age, season, diet, and other factors. A typical White Leghorn egg usually weighs from 53 to 63 gm with an average of 55 gm.<\/p>\n
2.In addition to water (74%), the main chemical compositions of hen egg are 11.8% lipids, 12.8% proteins, and small amounts of carbohydrates and minerals.<\/p>\n
3.Most of the proteins are present in the egg white and the egg yolk, amounting to 50% and 44%, respectively; the eggshell contains the rest of the proteins. The yolk accounts for slightly over onethird of the edible portion, but it yields three-fourths of the calories and provides all or most of the fat in whole eggs.<\/p>\n
4.The yolk comprises 48% water, 16% protein, 32.6% fat, and some minerals and vitamins. The white consists of 88% water, 10% protein, and some minerals. The amount of lipid in the egg white is negligible (0.01%) compared with the amount present in the yolk.<\/p>\n
5.The shell makes up 11% of the weight of an egg, and approximately 98% of the shell consists of calcium. Carbohydrates are a minor component of hen eggs. Their average content is about 0.5 g per egg, 40% of which is present in the yolk.<\/p>\n
6.Carbohydrates are present as free and conjugated forms which are attached to proteins and lipids. Glucose accounts for about 98% of the total free carbohydrate in the egg white.<\/p>\n
7.The content of carbohydrate in egg yolk is about 0.7-1.0 % and it consists of oligosaccharides bound to protein, composed of mannose and glucosamine; the remaining 0.3% is free carbohydrate in the form of glucose.<\/p>\n
8.About 94% of the minerals are in the egg shell fraction; the rest are distributed in egg white and egg yolk. Most of the minerals are in conjugated form, and only a small portion is present as inorganic compounds or ions.<\/p>\n
9.Calcium represents over 98% of total mineral in the shell; other inorganic components include phosphorus, magnesium, and trace contents of iron and sulfur. Egg yolk contains 2% minerals, phosphorus being the most abundant.<\/p>\n
10.More than 61% of the total phosphorus of egg yolk is contained in phospholipids. The major inorganic components of egg white are sulfur, potassium, sodium, and chlorine.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
