title: [Ultrahistochemical detection of PAS-positive substances in the oviduct epithelium of the aging woman].
abstract: The ultrahistochemical findings show that, in the oviductal epithelium of the ageing woman, periodate reactive substances are detectable in ciliated and nonciliated cells. These periodate reactive particles have different intracellular localization and distribution patterns. Besides, cells are found in the epithelium, which either contain only few periodate reactive material or react negatively. These cells appear singularly or in groups.
