Induction of immunosuppression by benzo (a) pyrene in broilers
Benzo[a]pyrene (BaP) is a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon which has shown carcinogenic, teratogenic, mutagenic and claimed immune-suppressive potentials. However, the exact mechanism whereby BaP induces such immunotoxicity is not fully explored. The effect of BaP on the immune system and morphology...
