Abstract:

This study aimed at determining the histochemical characteristics of skin mucous cells taken from the gular, pelvic and anal intervertebral areas, pelvic and pectoral intervertebral areas of Kadife Fish (Tinca tinca L. 1758) . In all three areas, sulphate-acid glycoconjugates showed a strong reaction. The application of the EU pH 2.5/PAS coloring method determined that the gular area contained only glucoconjugat-containing mucous cells, and other areas contained both acidic and neutral glucoconjugat-containing cells. Strong sulfate and O-sulfate ester glycoconjugates have been found to show a weak reaction in the mucous cells in the lungs and pelvic-anal intervertebral area, strong in the mucous cells in the pelvic-pectural intervertebral area.
