Figure 5

The Effect of the inhalation of lemon oil on the formalin test in mice destructed the rACC with ibotenic acid. A, Photomicrograph of representative coronal sections of rACC taken from mice destructed the rACC with ibotenic acid. Section was stained with NeuroTrace. B, The graph represent the licking duration time during each 5 min period on the formalin test in mice exposed to lemon oil. Black and white circles indicate the result of control mice and mice destructed the ACC with ibotenic acid respectively. Each value represents the mean ± S.E. *P < 0.05 compared to the control group.
