M. Singh et al., HISTOMORPHOLOGICAL STUDIES - ON THE GLANDULAR MUCOSA OF RUMEN, RETICULUM AND OMASUM IN CAMEL (CAMELUS-DROMEDARIUS), Indian Journal of Animal Sciences, 66(9), 1996, pp. 881-884
In camel, an extensive glandular mucosa lined parts of sacs of rumen,
reticulum and whole of omasum with typical cardiac glands. Surface, fo
veolar, isthmic and end-piece regions were diffeientiated. Strong to i
ntense PAS reaction occurred in foveolar cells and the cells of end-pi
eces. Strong Alcian-blue +ve material was observed in foveolar region.
The end-pieces contained strong mucin contents.
