Histochemical Study of Carbohydrate in Bothriocephalus acheilognathi (Cestoda:Pseudophyllidea)
Abstract
The current study included the histochemical study of cestoda Bothriocephalus acheilognathi in order to clarifying the place of the carbohydrates in different tissues and organs of this cestoda , this can be done by the use of periodic acid shiffs (PAS) , Tuluedene blue , alcian blue at PH 1.0 , 2.5 techneque . It was noticed that the result of very positive reactions in functional active organs for longitudinal muscles,
epidermis surface, mesenchyme tissue and vittelaria glands. However male and female reproductive organs.
This study concludes that the contrast in the present of carbohydrate substances in various tissues for parasite and then indication on the physiological and metabolical activity and response to the extrernal effects in the environment which at to stay in host's tissues .
