Modulation of intestinal mucin composition and mucosal morphology by dietary phytogenic inclusion level in broilers
The effect of a dietary phytogenic feed additive (PFA) inclusion level in mucin monosaccharide composition, mucosal morphometry and mucus histochemistry along the broiler intestinal tract was studied. Cobb male broilers (n = 525) were allocated into five experimental treatments that, depending on th...
