description | <b>Aim:</b> This study was carried out to determine the effect of Mentha
caucasica on histo-morphology of the small intestine at light
microscopic level in Japanese quails.<p>
<b>Materials and Methods:</b> One day-old Japane¬se quail chicks
(n=30) were used in the study. The quails were randomly divided
into 3 groups which consist of 10 animals for each.as
control, M1 (0,75% mint content) and M2 (1,5% mint content).
Animals were fed diets containing different mint content
for six weeks. At the end of the study, the birds were killed by
cervical dislocation. The duodenum, jejunum and ileum samples
were collected. After routine hitological process, the serial
sections were stained with Crossmon's trichrome and Periodic
Acid Schiff (PAS) reaction. All sections were evaluated under
the light microscope and were photographed by digital camera
and were recorded. Villus height, villus width, crypt depth, and
thickness of tunica muscularis were measured and Goblet cell
numbers were calculated.<p>
<b>Results:</b> The average villus height, crypt depth, and thickness
of tunica muscularis were increased in the duodenum, jejunum,
and ileum depending on the mint content (p<0,01) whereas villus
width was decreased in duodenum and jejunum in both mint
groups (p<0,001). Goblet cell number was not changed in duodenum
(p>0,05) but it was decreased (p<0,001) in jejunum in
M1 group hereas the number was increased (p<0,001) in ileum
of M2 group animals.<p>
<b>Conclusion:</b> Mint supplementation effected the histology of
small intestine in concentration dependent manner. |
