Figure Lengend Snippet: Histopathological examination of liver cells. Fig a – f : Liver cells with severe degree of hydropic degeneration in all investigated groups. a : infected by S. Typhimurium ATCC 14,028, untreated, b : infected by S. Paratyphi A, untreated, c : infected by S. Typhi, untreated, d : infected by S. Typhimurium ATCC 14,028, treated by vehicle, e : infected by S. Paratyphi A, treated by vehicle, & f : infected by S. Typhi, treated by vehicle. Fig g – l : Liver cells showing mild dilation of hepatic sinusoids in all groups, some revealing adenoid pattern ( g , i & j ). Noticeable activation of Ito cells could be detected in all groups. While necrosis of some individual hepatocytes could be demonstrated in other groups ( g , i & j ) g : infected by S. Typhimurium ATCC 14,028, treated by free form, h : infected by S. Paratyphi A, treated by free form, i : infected by S. Typhi, treated by free form, j : infected by S. Typhimurium ATCC 14,028, treated by microencapsulated form, k : infected by S. Paratyphi A, treated by microencapsulated form, & l : infected by S. Typhi, treated by microencapsulated form (H&E × 400)
