Notes:
Granulation staining and cytochemistry of peripheral blood monocytes in healthy carp (Cyprinus carpio L.) are described. Blood smears were stained for periodic acid-Schiff (PAS), peroxidase, oxidase, alkaline and acid phosphatase, α-naphthyl acetate esterase, α-naphthyl-butyrate esterase, naphthol-AS-chloroacetate esterase (AS-D), naphthol-AS-acetate esterase and β-glucuronidase. For representation of different granulations triazide-staining for eosinophil and neutrophil granules and aqueous methylere-blue staining for basophil granules were used. Lipids were shown by sudan-black-reaction. Monocytes showed only basophil granulation and weak lipid reaction. All tested enzymes were detected, with the exception of peroxidase. The PAS reaction for glycogen proof was negative.
