Pectoral fins of Micropogonias furnieri: A histochemical and ultrastructural study
The myotomal fibres of the pectoral fins of white croaker (Micropogonias furnieri) have been studied using histochemical techniques and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Succinic dehydrogenase (SDH) for mitochondria, periodic acid Schiff (PAS) for glycogen, Sudan Black for lipids and myosin-ad...
