Abstract
In our work, we studied the effect of antioxidants on the natural resistance of broiler chickens, as well as their effect on the histostructure of the liver. Studies have shown that hypoxene and heptran increase the bactericidal activity of blood serum and phagocytic activity of pseudoeosinophils. In addition, the studied drugs had a positive effect on the restoration of the structure of liver cells. At the end of the experimental period after poultry slaughter, there were no signs of fatty liver degeneration in chickens of the experimental groups, which indicates the hepatoprotective effect of hypoxene and heptran.
