Comparative Morphometric Study of the Filiform Lingual Papilla in the Middle East Blind Mole Rat (Spalax ehrenbergi, Nehring, 1898) and Wistar Albino Rat

This study aimed to reveal the morphometric differences between blind mole rats which live under ground and rats which live under laboratory conditions with regard to the length, base width, keratinization thickness and microscopic papilla depth. For this purpose, 7 adult blind mole rats and 7 adult...

For this purpose, 7 adult blind mole rats and 7 adult Wistar albino rats were used in the study.

While a statistically significant difference was not detected between lengths (p&gt;0.05), the difference between papilla width was found significant (p<0.05).
