The present work was conducted to elucidate the haematological changes in broiler chickens after Ziram intoxication. For this study, 150 apparently healthy broiler chicks were reared up to 2 weeks of age and randomly allocated to four groups, i.e. acute (N=10), sub-acute (N=20), sub-chronic (N=90) and control (N=30). Toxicity was induced following a single oral dose of Ziram @ 100mg/kg body weight for acute intoxication; 5 mg/kg body weight per day for 20 days in case of sub-acute group and 1mg/kg body weight per day for the study period of 90 days in case of sub-chronic intoxication. At the end of the experimental period the investigations revealed significant decrease in haemoglobin concentration, packed cell volume, total erythrocyte count and leucocytosis with heterophilia leading to clinical anaemia.Keywords

The present experimental work was conducted to elucidate the pathological changes in broiler chickens after ziram intoxication. For this study 120 apparently healthy broiler chicks were reared up to 2 weeks of age and allocated randomly to two groups, i.e. sub-chronic toxicity (N=90) and control group (N=30). Toxicity was induced in broiler chicks by giving 1 mg/kg body weight per day for the study period of 90 days in case of sub-chronic intoxication. At the end of the experimental period the investigations revealed depletion of lymphoid tissue from the lymphoid organs which were suggestive of immunosuppressive and immunomodulatory effects of ziram in chicken.Keywords
