Fig. 6. Sections of liver (7 µm) stained with Mallory's trichrome from fish fed
(A) low (B) normal- and (C) high-Fe diets for 8 weeks. Livers are healthy, but
show some subtle changes in intracellular glycogen storage and sinusoid space
between treatments. Fish fed on the low-Fe diet showed smaller hepatocytes,
with less glycogen storage (arrows), and slightly more sinusoid space (S) than
normal diet controls. Livers from fish fed the high-Fe diet had slightly more
sinusoid space than controls, and had slightly larger (mild hypertrophy)
hepatocytes that contained less glycogen than controls. Scale bars, 40
µm.
