Histochemical studies on the body wall of Haemonchus contortus (Rud.) and Xiphinema insigne Loos have been made. In H. contortus, the cuticle is mainly proteinous in nature. The lipids and PAS-postive materials are only present in cortical layers. In addition, haemoglobin and acid phosphatase are also present. The hypodermis shows the presence of glycogen, lipids, RNA, acid and alkaline phosphatases. The oval dense body is composed of keratinous and collagenous proteins associated with acid mucopolysaccharides. Muscles carry a greater concentration of glycogen granules and phospholipids. In X. insigne, the cuticle is rich in sudanophilic lipids. The cuticle also consists of weakly acidic mucopolysaccharides. Hypodermis and muscles contain lipids and glycogen. In addition, hypodermis also consists of acidic mucopolysaccharides. The functional significance of these components has been fully discussed.
对捻转血矛线虫（Rud.）和 insignis 剑线虫（Loos）的体壁进行了组织化学研究。在捻转血矛线虫中，角质层本质上主要是蛋白质性的。脂质和 PAS 阳性物质仅存在于皮层。此外，还存在血红蛋白和酸性磷酸酶。皮下组织显示存在糖原、脂质、RNA、酸性和碱性磷酸酶。椭圆形致密体由与酸性粘多糖相关的角蛋白和胶原蛋白组成。肌肉含有较高浓度的糖原颗粒和磷脂。在 insignis 剑线虫中，角质层富含嗜苏丹脂质。角质层还由弱酸性粘多糖组成。皮下组织和肌肉含有脂质和糖原。此外，皮下组织还由酸性粘多糖组成。已充分讨论了这些成分的功能意义。
