A study of human eccrine sweat glands by electron spectroscopic imaging has been performed. A high nitrogen content in secretory granules of the dark mucous cells has been found while mucous cells in the digestive or respiratory systems did not contain nitrogen detectable in our experimental conditions. High concentrations of nitrogen were found in zymogenic granules and in the core of the granules in the eosinophilic leucocytes. Our findings seem to suggest that the granules of the dark secretory cells are composed not only of mucoid substances but contain also high concentrations of proteins. The descriptive term "granulated cells" seems to be more correct than "mucous cells" to indicate these elements.
通过电子光谱成像对人体外分泌汗腺进行了一项研究。发现深色黏液细胞的分泌颗粒中氮含量很高，而在我们的实验条件下，消化系统或呼吸系统中的黏液细胞不含可检测到的氮。在嗜酸性白细胞的酶原颗粒和颗粒核心中发现了高浓度的氮。我们的研究结果似乎表明，深色分泌细胞的颗粒不仅由黏液样物质组成，还含有高浓度的蛋白质。用描述性术语“颗粒细胞”来表示这些成分似乎比“黏液细胞”更准确。
