Distribution of Glycoconjugates in the Gills of Oscar Fish (Astronotus ocellatus)

Glycoconjugates involved in many functions are produced by many cell types. This study aimed to investigate the glycoconjugate expression in the Oscar fish (Astronotus ocellatus) gills using five horseradish peroxidase-conjugated lectins. This study revealed that gill epithelial cells react with Can...
