Shell Membrane Formation

Shell Membrane Formation is a biological process in which fibrous protein layers are sequentially deposited around the avian egg contents in the oviduct isthmus, distinguishing it from other egg formation stages by its specific role in forming the inner and outer shell membranes that provide structural support and nucleation sites for subsequent calcification.
