Electron microscopy images (oxygenated KH buffer). (A) TO mouse liver at 0 h demonstrating a hepatocyte with preserved architecture. Note hepatocyte nucleus (N) and numerous intact mitochondria (m). (B) TO mouse liver at 6 h demonstrating a preserved hepatocyte microarchitecture with only mild swelling of mitochondria (m). Note hepatocyte nucleus (N). (C) C57Bl/6 mouse liver at time 0 demonstrating a hepatocyte with preserved architecture. Note hepatocyte nucleus (N) and numerous intact mitochondria (m).
