A study of the formation of the neural network in the lungs of Perdicula asiatica, as revealed by the cholinesterase technique.
The investigation was undertaken to investigate the formation and association of neural network and their fibres with nerve cells and ganglia in the parenchyma. The staining of the neural network was done by the cholinesterase technique under the maintained pH 5.2, temperature 40 degrees C and incubation period 30 hrs. The neural network was formed by a good number of tortuous thick nerves and was related either with nerve cells or ganglia. At times, it was formed by a good number of thick nerves and a few thin nerves in the connective tissue space.
