Figure 5

Peri-incisional infiltration of neutrophils, immunohistochemical quantification. The number of neutrophils in 0.01 mm2 un-incised plantar skin or skin adjacent to incisions is presented. Animals were injected with saline or morphine 0.1 or 10 mg/kg prior to incision as indicated. For each condition 3–5 sections from 4 control or incised paws were analyzed. Statistical analysis was performed to detect differences between saline treated and morphine treated neutrophil counts. **p < 0.01.
