Evaluation of Steviol Injection on Chicken Embryos: Effects on Post-hatch Development, Proportional Organ Weights, Plasma Thyroid Hormones and Metabolites

Evaluation of Steviol Injection on Chicken Embryos: Effects on Post-hatch Development, Proportional Organ Weights, Plasma Thyroid Hormones and Metabolites

At day 7 of incubation, eggs were injected with high levels of steviol (1.5 and 3mg per egg). At hatch, no effect of steviol injection was observed on plasma thyroid hormone levels, hatchability, body weight and chick quality. Proportional liver weight of chicks receiving the highest steviol dose...
