ArticleItem Open Access Effect of In Ovo Supplementation of Amino Acids and Nanoselenium on Small Intestine Histomorphometry(Indian Veterinary Association, 2017-11) Chandiranathan, T.; Karu, Pasupathi; Valli, C.; Omprakash, A.V.; TANUVASSix hundred and twenty five Vencobb-400 fertile eggs were randomly divided into five treatment groups, each with five replicates to study the effect of in ovo supplementation of amino acids combination with nano form of selenium on small intestine histomorphometry. The treatments T1,T2,T3,T4 and T5 were injected with normal saline (0.5 ml), amino acids (Glycine-3.22 mg + Proline-3.24 mg), amino acids (Lysine-5.16 mg + Arginine-5.04 mg + Glutamine-12.10 mg), amino acids in T2 with nano form of selenium (0.3 μg) and amino acids in T3 with nano form of selenium (0.3 μg), respectively in ovo on 18th day of incubation. Intestinal histomorphology revealed that supplementation of amino acids in combination with nano form of selenium influenced villus length and width of duodenum, jejenum and ileum. Based It was concluded that in ovo supplementation of amino acids and nano selenium improves (P<0.01) small intestinal villus length and duodenal villus width in broilers in comparison to control treatment.
