0.05). Different levels of peppermint powder caused to decreased antibody production against SRBC and humoral immune suppression (P<0.01). In addition, different levels of peppermint powder enhanced the cellular immune system through increased lymphocyte proliferation and significant increase in the thickness of the membrane between the toes in response to SRBC injection (P<0.01). The results of this experiment showed that the consumption of peppermint powder had no effect on performance of Japanese quail during different weeks and whole the experimental period (P>0.05). Moreover, there were no significant differences between the treatments for carcass characteristics, internal organ weights and length and weight of different parts of the intestine (P>0.05). Thus, according to enhancement of cellular immune responses by peppermint powder, the use of peppermint powder is recommended during the viral illness (such as Newcastle, bronchitis and influenza) or intracellular parasite infection (such as coccidiosis).]]>
