Respiratory macrophage activity and pulmonary morphology following exposure to benzo(a)pyrene in broilers

Respiratory macrophage activity and pulmonary morphology following exposure to benzo(a)pyrene in broilers

The effect of benzo(a)pyrene (BaP) on the macrophage defense system and lung morphology in broilers was evaluated. One day age chicks were divided into 4 groups of 40. Control chicks were given tricaprylin alone intratracheally (IT), while treated groups were given BaP (viz, at 1.5 micro g, 150 micr...
