Immunodetection of bovine chorionic somatomammotrophin (bCS).
Bovine chorionic somatomammotrophin (bCS) was detected in the bovine placenta by using an immunoenzymatic procedure. This hormone appears mainly located in the binucleate cells of the foetal cotyledons and to a lesser extent in some localized superficial areas of the foetal and maternal epithelium. These areas may correspond to foetal binucleate cells migrating into the maternal caruncles.
