Abstract

The present study was conducted on the blood cells of ten apparently healthy Kadaknath fowls. The
granules of basophils were stained metachromatically when stained with 1% toludine blue stain for
mucopolysaccharides. Black coloured Sudanophilic granules were observed in the cytoplasm of the
eosinophils. Glycogen in the form of light pinkish violet coloured granules was demonstrated by periodic
acid Schiff’s stain only in the eosinophils. Acid ferrocyanide stain showed positive reaction in the form of
fine blue coloured granules in siderocytes.
