title: [Histotopography of glycosidases in the accessory glands of the boar before and after castration].
abstract: The histochemical distribution of six glycosidases (N-acetyl-beta-glucosaminidase, beta-galactosidase, beta-glucuronidase, alpha-galactosidase, alpha-mannosidase and alpha-fucosidase) was investigated in the prostate, glandula vesicularis and glandula bulbourethralis of castrated and non-castrated adult boars. The functions of the glycosidases in the male accessory sex glands of the boar and their androgen dependence are discussed briefly.
