Abstract:

The present research work was carried out to study the nephro and hepatoprotective effect of Ocimum sanctum in broilers exposed to high doses of gentamicin, which is common in poultry practice of Tamilnadu. Two hundred and seventy day old broiler chicks of either sex were randomly divided into nine treatment groups of 10 each with three replicates. Different doses of gentamicin (30 mg/kg & 50 mg/kg) given with single intramuscular injection, different inclusion level of Ocimum sanctum crude extract (1% & 2 %) in feed were tested. The results of the study revealed that Ocimum sanctum showed dose dependant protective effect against Gentamicin induced nephrotoxicity and hepatotoxicity, which is evidenced by histopathological and gross examination.
