Antioxidant enzymes: SOD (superoxide dismutase), CAT (catalase), and GSH-Px (glutathione peroxidase). NC (normal control broilers), HC (STZ-induced broilers), and quercetin (0.02%, 0.04%, and 0.06%) groups. Statistical analysis was performed by one-way ANOVA followed by Tukey’s test. Values are expressed as the and . Values with different letters are significantly different ( (SOD, GSH-Px) and (CAT)).
