Lectin-gold complexes in the dark granules (DGs) and the dense substance (DS) of vallate taste buds were localized. Both the DGs and the DS were labelled with wheat-germ agglutinin, Ulex europeus agglutinin-I and peanut agglutinin. Their common reaction to these lectins suggested that the DGs contain carbohydrate components similar to those of the DS. The results provide cytochemical evidence that the DS in the taste pit represents, at least in part, the content of the DGs in the type 1 cells.
对轮廓乳头味蕾的暗颗粒（DGs）和致密物质（DS）中的凝集素-金复合物进行了定位。DGs和DS均用麦胚凝集素、欧洲荆豆凝集素-I和花生凝集素标记。它们对这些凝集素的共同反应表明，DGs含有与DS相似的碳水化合物成分。这些结果提供了细胞化学证据，表明味窝中的DS至少部分代表了1型细胞中DGs的内容物。
