Figure 1:

Photomicrograph of transverse section of jejunum from control group of broilers showed the villus height 60.13 micrometer while the crypt depth is 13.87 micrometer (HandE stain. 10X).

Figure 2:

Photomicrograph of transverse section of jejunum in STV 10g/kg broiler showed the villus height was 74 micrometers while the crypt depth was 15.67 micrometer (HandE stain. 10X).

Figure 3:

Photomicrograph of transverse section of jejenum in STV 20g/kg broiler showed the villus height was 88.87 micrometer while the crypt depth was 19.4 micrometer (HandE stain. 10X).

Figure 4:

Photomicrograph of transverse section of jejenum in STV 30g/kg broiler showed the villus height was 98.93 micrometer while the crypt depth was 19.8 micrometer (HandE stain. 10X).
