Some histochemical reactions on the neurosecretory cells of Rivulogammarus syriacus chevreux (Crustacea, Amphipoda).
The histochemistry of neurosecretory material in neurosecretory cells of Rivulo-gammarus syriacus has been investigated. Histochemically, these cells contain different neurosecretory substances. The material in A and C cells consists of mucopolysaccharides and lipids, that in B, B' and D cells there are a protein containing cystine S-S group, mucopolysaccharides and lipids, and that in E cell contains a weak protein with cystine S-S group, a substance showing beta metachromasia and lipids. The lipids are found in all the cells.
