Sažetak
The aim of this study was to compare consumable eggs quality class L of three producers, located in shopping malls in the city of Osijek. Indicators of egg quality compared in this work are values of the mass of eggs and its basic components and external and internal quality of eggs of three producers. Although the eggs were class L there were differences among producers. The highest weight of eggs was recorded for producer B (66.14g), while the egg mass for producers A and B were equal (65.05g and 65.03g, respectively, P=0.158). In the egg white weight there was no significant difference between eggs of different producers (P=0.152). By comparing yolk mass values, significantly heavier egg yolks originated from producer B in comparison with producer A and C (18.19g: 17.12g and 16.90g, respectively, P<0.05). The larger shell mass was found in eggs produced by C and B compared to eggs originating from producer A (8.53g and 8.49g compared to 7.65g, P<0.05). By analyzing the internal and external indicators of the eggs quality of three different producers, we noticed a significant difference in the values of the index of form, strength and thickness of the shell, yolk pH and colour (P<0.05). Differences in results of albumen height, Hough unit and albumen pH were not statistically significant (P>0.05). Analysis of the egg quality of different producers shows that consumable eggs in our market are satisfactory in with quality and correspond to the Regulations on the quality of eggs in Croatia.
