Figure 1

Histological sections of the liver and kidney from the acute toxicity test. (a and b) Rats treated with 5 mL/kg of the vehicle (CMC). (c and d) Rats treated with 2000 mg/kg (5 mL/kg) of the J. sambac extract. (e and f) Rats treated with 5000 mg/kg (5 mL/kg) of the J. sambac extract. There is no significant difference in the structures of the livers and kidneys between the treated and control groups (Hematoxylin and Eosin stain, 20× magnifications).
