Abstract: | The effects of purified aflatoxin B1 on cell mediated immunity in broilers were carried out using 0.3 p.p.m. and 1 p.p.m. dose level. The percentage of acid alpha-naphthyl acetate esterase reacting lymphocytes was significantly (P less than 0.05) decreased in chicks fed 0.3 p.p.m. and 1 p.p.m. level of aflatoxin B1. The albumin and globulin values were also significantly decreased (P less than 0.05) at both dose levels. |
