Light and Electron Microscopic Studies on papillae of Rat Tongue in Response to Ingestion of Red Chilli
Capsaicin is the active component responsible for hotness of red chilli. Present study evaluated effect of capsaicin contained in red chilli on rat tongue papillae. Wild rats (Rattus rattus) were fed on food containing 2% red chilli powder for a total of 7 days. Rats of control group were fed on pla...
