Study on the nerve endings in the pancreas of Rattus rattus refescens and Gallus domsticus as revealed by the cholinesterase technique.

An investigation was undertaken to study the nerve endings in the pancreas of Rattus rattus rufescens and Gallus domesticus by cholinesterase technique. Bulb-like nerve ending in the connective tissue (negatively stained) and dot-like nerve ending in the lobular cells were recorded in Rattus. Dot-like nerve ending on the periphery of the lobular cells and bulb like nerve endings connected with nerve bundle, were recorded in Gallus. Nerve endings were AChE-positive in nature in both Rattus and Gallus.
