From: The influence of parasitic infection (Eimeria spp.) on bone and cartilage tissue in an animal model
The influence of Eimeria spp. infection on content of thin collagen content of the tibia in studied animals. (A) Representative photos of the of PSR-stained section of trabecular bone and compact bone (thin collagen appears green under polarized light, arrowhead); (B) Percentage of thin collagen relative to total collagen. Control – healthy birds. Study – birds infected with Eimeria spp. Values represent means ± standard deviation (SD, whiskers) from n = 10 birds per group. Scale bars represent 200 μm. Statistical significance is indicated as: *** p < 0.001 (determined by two-tailed Student’s t-test, t-test with Welch’s correction, or Mann–Whitney U test).
