Liver histology, ×400 magnification. The effects of individual plant extracts administered to four different treatment groups of rats (MCL, SCSB, OVL, and NLSB denoting groups 1, 2, 3, and 4, respectively) were observed for any signs of toxicity around the portal triad (BD: bile duct; HA: hepatic artery; PV: portal vein) in both the treated and control (CTR) groups. The control group however was administered with just distilled water. H: hepatocytes around this area and the S: sinusoids were closely observed for any signs of necrosis.
