The localisation of beta-N-acetyl-glucosaminidase in the oviduct of the domestic fowl.
1. Beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase [EC 3.2.1.30] activity in the oviduct of the domestic fowl has been studied using biochemical and histochemical methods. 2. The principal source of the enzyme was the isthmus, where the enzyme was localised within the less dense region of the dual density granules which characterise this portion of the oviduct.
