Evaluation of Genotoxic Effect and Antigenotoxic Potential against DNA Damage of the Aqueous and Ethanolic Leaf Extracts of Annona muricata Using an In Vivo Erythrocyte Rodent Micronucleus Assay

Figure 3

Fluorescent microphotograph of MNPCEs, MNEs, and PCEs from a A. muricata leaf extract-treated rodents. Arrows indicates MN in an immature (polychromatic) erythrocyte (PCE) and in a mature (normochromatic) erythrocyte (NCE). PCE are stained in orange, MN in yellow, and NCE in dark green. Erythrocytes (PCE or NCE) without MN are considered normal cells (stain acridine orange; 100x).
