Plate 53 See also Figure A2.15 Liver, sheep. Pseudomelanosis. The liver is viewed from the caudal
surface with the ventral aspect at the bottom of the picture. The right and quadrate lobes are noticeably
darker in colour than the rest of the liver consistent with build of iron sulphide in the tissues as a result
of post-mortem bacterial overgrowth. Note also post-mortem emphysema in the wall of the gallbladder.
