title: [Postnatal development of the masticatory muscles of the Wistar rat (Rattus norvegicus Berkenhout). A histochemical study].
abstract: Muscle biopsies of the mandible adductors of the Wistar rat (Rattus norvegicus Berkenhout) have been analyzed enzyme-histochemically for the investigation of the postnatal development (42.-126. d post partum) of their muscle fibers with special regards to the fiber types. The following methods have been used in this investigation: myofibrillar adenosine triphosphatase (ATP-ase) with different pre-incubations, Sudan black B (triglycerides), periodic acid-Schiff reagent (PAS) (glycogen), Gomori modified Trichrome staining. Quantitative analysis of muscle fibre-type composition and muscle fibre size was done from different regions of muscle sections. Estimation of the fiber size was carried out by measuring the minimum diameter of each type of muscle fibre.
