  • Title: Cytochemistry of blood cells in peripheral smears of some West African reptiles.
    Author: Caxton-Martins AE.
    Journal: J Anat; 1977 Nov; 124(Pt 2):393-400. PubMed ID: 591435.
    Abstract:
    The distributions of lipid, glycogen, peroxidase, acid and alkaline phosphatases, beta-glucuronidase and naphthol AS-D chloroacetate esterase have been studied in the cells of peripheral smears from the wall ghecko and the crocodile. The erythrocytes react differently from those of mammalian erythrocytes with regard to peroxidase reactivity. The need to take such species differences into consideration when engaged in histochemical investigations is stressed.
