Figure 2

Examples of H&E-stained histological sections of livers (left column) and kidneys (right column) obtained from the rats in the acute toxicity test. Rat with the liver and kidney shown in (a) and (b) was treated with 5 mL/kg vehicle (10% Tween 20). Rat with the liver and kidney shown in (c) and (d) was treated with 2 g/kg (5 mL/kg) dose of the BR extract. Rat with the liver and kidney shown in (e) and (f) was treated with 5 g/kg (5 mL/kg) dose of the BR extract. There was no significant difference in the structures of the liver and kidney between the treatment and control groups.
