Abstract

The phosphatase in gustatory epithelium of sheep circumvallate papillae revealed site-specific histochemical localization of AKPase, ACPase and ATPase was mainly localized in taste bud cells. The presence of various phosphatases, esterases and oxidorcductascs in superficial byer of moat indicated a
physiologically active stratum comeum. Papillae-associated glundular parenchyma also revealed strong activities of AKPase, ATPasc, SDH, LDH and NADPH .
