Abstract
The ultrastructural investigations of the parotid gland of Korean native goat were carried out by transmission electron microscopy. The results were as follows; 1. The acini of parotid gland were composed of light and dark acinar cells. 2. In the light acinar cells, the secretory granules were classified into three types according to their electron densities and dense bodies. One type of granules was low electron density and had no dense bodies. Another type was low electron density and had dense bodies, and the other type was low electron density and had granular dense bodies. 3. The secretory granules of dark acinar cells showed high electron density and were also calssified into three types by dense bodies as the same way as in the light acinar cells. 4. The intercalated ducts consisted of simple cuboidal epithelium. The nuclei of epithelial cells were oval or round form, located at the central part, and had infolding nuclear membranes and one or two nucleoli. 5. The cells of both of the striated and excretory ducts were composed of light cells, dark cells, specific light cells and basal cells. 6. The nerve terminals were distinguished into two types. One had large granular synaptic vesicles, and another had small agranular synaptic vesicles.
Key Words: parotid gland, ultrastructures, Korean native goat
