Mean body weight gains in chickens administered with eth-anolic extract of sugar cane bagasse were significantly higher
(P< 0.05) as compared to chickens administered with aqueous ex-tract of sugar cane juice and control group; but were comparable
to the weight gains of non-treated non infected chickens (historic
data adopted from the same study site;Awais, 2010) except on
day 7, 8, and 9 post challenge that are the days of peaks of infection.
At the same time, weight gains in chickens administered with aque-ous extract were also significantly higher (P< 0.05) as compared to
control group.
