Abstract Bovine pulp was treated in vitro with saline, cresol, or eugenol and analyzed morphologically, histologically, and biochemically. Cresol caused considerable shrinkage and disruption of tissue compared to saline and eugenol-treated samples. Cresol also extracted more phospholipids, as determined chemically, and more phospholipids and neutral lipids as visualized by chromatography. The extraction of phospholipids by saline and eugenol was very similar. Neutral lipid extraction by eugenol was limited. It was concluded that cresol caused more dehydration of pulp tissue and considerably more dissolution of cell membranes than eugenol.
