Histopathology of liver using hematoxylin and eosin straining. Sections from control chicks’ hepatic lobule indicate complete structures. The liver cell has a regular shape that is within normal limits. Intracytoplasmic vacuoles are shown in hepatocytes around the centrilobular region in the 1T3, 2T3, 3T1, 3T2, and 3T3 groups. Hepatocyte marked inflammation around the periportal region, with microvesicular and macrovesicular fatty infiltration (yellow arrows) liver cells appearing near necrosis with nuclear fragmentation in the 3T2 and 3T3 groups. The hepatocyte gap was also increased in the 2T3 3T1, 3T2, and 3T3 groups. There was no difference between the control and the 2T1 group.
