The present work was carried out to study the influence of supplementation of P.niruri extract on the immune potential in commercial broiler chicken. The results revealed that the supplementation of P. niruri crude and standardized extracts at 1% and 0.1% levels improved the humoral immunity by increasing antibody titres against specific antigen Ranikhet Lasota in broilers. Hepatostimulatory effect of Phyllanthus and the resultant increase in protein synthesis is observed.
