While African and Asian cattle continue to produce only A2 beta-casein, the A1 version of the protein is common among cattle in the western world. The A1 beta-casein type is the most common type found in cow's milk in Europe (excluding France), the USA, Australia and New Zealand. On average, more than 70 percent of Guernsey

Safety

Safety Interlocking mechanisms are a common air shower feature to prevent both exits from being opened simultaneously, which would allow outside air to enter a tightly controlled environment. This requires occupants to stay inside until the decontamination cycle has completed. For this reason, safety features such as emergency stops are required by most safety administrations. Alternatively, the air shower may consist of a long tunnel not equipped with doors; personnel slowly walk through to reach the controlled area. Air handling equipment creates an isolated atmosphere using pressure differentials to create fluid boundaries between the inner and outer environments.

The name of the current municipality refers to a certain “Waro” clan or tribe, possibly dating from the Frankish period.
