Title: Histochemical observations on chicken blood and bone marrow cells. Author: Caxton-Martins AE, Daimon T. Journal: J Anat; 1976 Dec; 122(Pt 3):553-8. PubMed ID: 188794. Abstract: The distribution of lipid, glycogen, peroxidase, alkaline phosphatase and acid phosphatase has been studied in the cells of blood and bone marrow smears from young chickens. Chicken heterophil granules react differently from those of mammalian neutrophils. A strongly positive peroxidase reaction was given by developing erythrocytes in chickens, unlike mammals. The significance of these species differences is not yet clear.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
