Scanning electron microscopy was used to examine the morphological cell changes of L929 cell line in tissue culture. The cells were exposed to different concentrations of sodium hypochlorite and Miswak extract. The cells were examined after two and four hour exposure. Results showed that the higher the concentrations of Miswak extract and sodium hypochlorite, the greater the morphological changes of L929 cell line.
