Effect of feeding raw and processed Meskit (Prosopis juliflora) pods on serum biochemistry and histopathology of the liver and kidney of Omani sheep

An experiment was conducted to study the effects of incorporating raw or processed Meskit pods on histopathology of kidney and liver of sheep. Twenty-four Omani sheep were fed one of four diets: Rhodes grass hay (RGH) plus commercial concentrate (CC); RGH plus raw Meskit pods based diet (RMP); RGH p...
