Figure 2

Photomicrographs showing histology of epididymal tissue from control group (a), group exposed to cadmium at a dose of 30 mg/L (b), group exposed to diazinon at a dose of 40 mg/L (c), and group exposed to cadmium at a dose of 30 mg/L and diazinon at a dose of 40 mg/L (d). ET: epididymal tubules, PE: pseudostratified columnar epithelium, IT: interstitial tissue, SM: spermatozoa, BV: blood vessels, CD: cellular debris, and arrows: intraepithelial empty spaces (hematoxylin-eosin, original magnification ×200).
