Observation and analysis of intestinal histomorphology (3 weeks).
(a) The 0.125 μg, 0.25 μg, 0.5 μg and 0.1 μg treatment groups showed improvement in the villus height and crypt depth compared with the control group by microscopy observation of duodenum morphology (n = 6). (b) Statistical analysis of the 0.125 μg, 0.25 μg and 0.5 μg treatment groups showed significantly increased villus height, crypt depth and V/C ratio in the duodenum (n = 30). (c) The 0.125 μg, 0.25 μg, 0.5 μg and 0.1 μg treatment groups showed improvement in the villus height and crypt depth compared with the control group by microscopy observation of jejunum morphology (n = 6). (d) Statistical analysis of the 0.125 μg and 0.25 μg treatment groups showed significantly increased villus height, crypt depth and V/C ratio of the jejunum (n = 30).
