Data are presented on the size, Leydig cell content and seminiferous tubule dimensions of the normal bull testis. A method of estimating total tubule length, requiring only the measurement of testis volume and the number of tubule cross-sections in a unit area is described, and its applicability to the bull established. The average bull testis contains about 5.2 km of tubules.
本文给出了正常公牛睾丸的大小、间质细胞含量和生精小管尺寸的数据。描述了一种仅需测量睾丸体积和单位面积内小管横截面积就能估算小管总长度的方法,并确定了该方法在公牛身上的适用性。公牛的睾丸平均含有约5.2千米长的小管。
