Remediating effects of coral fossils on hematobiochemical, histo accumulation and organ histomorphological changes in Chromium intoxicated broilers

Abstract Chromium is one of the most noxious toxins that causes toxic effects in poultry. Coral fossils contain calcium, magnesium and other minerals and have antibacterial, fungistatic and anti-oxidative action. In our previous study, coral fossils showed protective effects against lead (Pb) and cadmium (Cd) toxicities in broilers. Our current study evaluated the effects of coral fossil on blood biochemistry and organ histology in chromium (Cr) exposed broilers. 90-day-old broiler chicks were randomly assigned to three equal groups, each containing
