| Abstract: | Antibodies (IgG or IgY) titre values were higher in broilers sera
infected with sporulated oocyst and merozoites reaching a peak
on day 10 of post primary and secondary infections and day 5 post
tertiary infection in sera of broilers (treated and non- treated). At
tertiary infection, antibodies increases at day 5, 7, 11 and 14 indicating
that antibodies increases in broilers infected with the invasive or
zoite stages, (sporozoite and merozoite) of the parasite.. There was a
significant difference in the antibody output between the sera of the
broiler groups (p<0.05). |
