The Oroxylum indicumplant is aherbal plant commonly eaten by the locals in Malaysia while the application of herbal remedies from the plant has been inherited and passed down through generations. However, there is a lack of toxicity profiling of the plant, hence this research aimed toinvestigate acute oral toxicity ofethanol extract of O. indicumin C57BL/6 male mice at different concentrations, to determine the LD50of the plant extract. A total of twenty-five mice were randomly assigned into five experimental groups comprising the control (normal saline), vehicle (5% DMSO), low dose (1000 mg/kg bw), medium dose (2000 mg/kg bw) and high dose …

Animal preservation for anatomy teaching has been required to replace formaldehyde and phenolwhich represent a health hazard to humans. A comparative study of embalming solutions with partial replacement of formaldehyde and phenol with sodium chloride and ethanol was evaluated in mouse cadavers over an 18-month period. Twelve adult mouse carcasses were divided into six groups of two mice each. After openingthe mouse’s skin,the internal organswere removed and preserved with the remaining cadavers by freezing (Group I, control group) or in the respective embalming solution (Groups II to VI) and examined after 3, 6, 12 and 18 months. For the embalming …
