Abstract:A study on bone development under the influence of selenium and vitamin E supplementation was under taken in broiler chicken. Three levels of each selenium (0.15, 0.35, and 0.45 mg/kg diet) and vitamin E (50, 100, and 150 IU/ kg diet) were taken to formulate nine treatment groups in the form of broiler starter and finisher to evaluate the bone morphometry and bone mineralization of broiler chicken. The experiment was conducted in a high temperature humidity index (83.94) during the August-September period. The… Show more
