Cryostat section of liver, kidneys, rumen, jejunum, spleen, heart, cerebrum, lungs and gall bladder of buffalo calves (Bubalus bubalis) experi mentally intoxicated by oral administration of dried leaf powder of Lantana camara variety aculeata red flower @ 6 g/kg body weight were studied for histochemieal/histoenzymatic changes.
