Legend: In control group (positive control) numerous caspase 3+ areas (asterisk), as well as vacuolitation of epithelial cells (arrows). In negative control scarce caspase 3+ areas (asterisk) were found; villi and epithelial cells without histopathological changes (arrows). MB5 group showed few caspase 3+ areas (asterisk). MB20 group showed severe lesions composed of erosion of villi, disepithelized tips and high subepithelial space (arrows). In this group there was a severe expression of caspase 3+ areas (asterisk).
