Micrographs of Giemsa-stained L. donovani infected BALB/c peritoneal macrophages. Peritoneal macrophages were incubated for 2 days at 37°C, 5% CO2, in medium containing 0.2% volume per volume (v/v) DMSO (A), 12.5 µM luteolin (B), or 45.5 µM quercetin (C). Magnification 1000X. Note the presence of healthy intracellular amastigotes in cultures incubated with media (containing DMSO) and the degraded intracellular amastigotes in cultures incubated with luteolin or quercetin.
