The histochemical analysis carried out on the mucus of the epidermis of Torpedo ocellata RAF. showed that it is not only produced in considerable quantities by the mucous cells but is also elaborated by the epidermal cells of the skin. The mucus elaborated by the mucous cells is rich in carboxyl and phosphate containing MPS and in sialic acid containing glycoproteins. It also contains a neutral mucopolysaccharide fraction relatable to glycogen and a considerable quantity of chondroitinsulfates B. Epidermal cells produce a secretion with the same histochemical characteristics as the mucus elaborated by the mucous cells and contain mucopolysaccharide-protein complexes. Their secretory activity is also discussed in relation to their functionality.
对豹纹电鳐（Torpedo ocellata RAF.）表皮黏液进行的组织化学分析表明，黏液不仅由黏液细胞大量产生，皮肤的表皮细胞也参与其形成。黏液细胞产生的黏液富含含羧基和磷酸盐的黏多糖以及含唾液酸的糖蛋白。它还含有与糖原相关的中性黏多糖部分和大量的硫酸软骨素B。表皮细胞产生的分泌物具有与黏液细胞产生的黏液相同的组织化学特征，并含有黏多糖 - 蛋白质复合物。还讨论了它们的分泌活性与其功能的关系。
