Abstract
The histochemical technique of Barrnett and Seligman for the demonstration of protein-bound sulfhydryl and disulfide groups was applied to sections of the anterior pituitary of various species. It was found that the "acidophiles" contained a significant amount of sulfhydryl and/or disulfide groups whereas basophiles and chromophobes contained little or no reactive material.Keywords
