Figure 2From: Furfural induces reactive oxygen species accumulation and cellular damage in Saccharomyces cerevisiaeFurfural causes internal cellular damage. Exponentially growing yeast cells grown with either no inhibitor (1st row) or 25 mM furfural (2nd and 3rd rows) were fixed and thin-sectioned for transmission electron microscopy analysis after they had been exposed to furfural for 8 h. Mitochondria are indicated by arrows, vacuoles by asterisks, and nuclei by N.Back to article page
