Abstract
Since the work of Romer (1) in 1896 it has been known that the sweat glands are present in the footpads of the rat. Schiefferdecker (2) presumed that the rat's sweat glands are of eccrine type as in the footpads of the cat and dog. This was confirmed by histological observation of Ring and Randall (3). Recently Hashimoto et al.(4) found that the nerve fibers surrounding the secretory tubules of the glands were stained for cholin-esterases.
