Jejunal mucosal lysozyme (a) and iNOS (b) activities of broiler chickens. CON group, received a basal diet; ARG group, fed a basal diet supplemented with 3 g/kg arginine; CON+CP group, received a basal diet and underwent C. perfringens challenge; ARG + CP group, given a basal diet supplemented with 3 g/kg arginine and underwent C. perfringens challenge. iNOS, inducible nitric oxide synthase. The results are expressed as means ± SEM (n = 8)
