Fig. 3From: Effects of different feeding regimens with protease supplementation on growth, amino acid digestibility, economic efficiency, blood biochemical parameters, and intestinal histology in broiler chickensA photomicrograph of chicken intestinal tissue sections showing the normal histological structure in cross-section of ileum in group I (A), group II (B), group III (C), group IV (D, E), group V (F, G), and group VI (H, I), Villus (V), crypt (c), goblet cells (arrows), and tunica musculosa (M). Stain: H & E in (A, C, F), alcian blue (B), and PAS in (G–I). I (FR1 − VE): recommended protein SBM diet without protease supplementation; II (FR1 + VE): recommended protein SBM diet + protease supplementation; III (FR2 − VE): low-protein SBM diet without protease supplementation; IV (FR2 + VE): low-protein SBM diet + protease supplementation; V (FR3 − VE): low-protein SBM/DDGS-SFM diet without protease supplementation; VI (FR3 + VE): low-protein SBM/DDGS-SFM diet + protease supplementationBack to article page
