Histochemical structure of palpebral conjunctiva in red-leggent partridge
Abstract :
In this study, it was aimed to determine the histochemical structure of palpebral conjunctiva in red- legged partridge. Lower and upper eyelids of 4 adult red-legged partridge were used as research material. It was detected that most of the goblet cells in the tarsal and orbital regions of upper and lower eyelids contained neutral and acidic mucins by histochemical stainings. While the weak reaction was observed in the surface epithelium of marginal region of lower and upper eyelids for carboxylated mucins, the goblet cells containing intensively carboxylated mucins were determined in the orbital and tarsal regions. The sulphated mucin was not found in surface epithelium of marginal region in the lower and upper eyelids.
