Abstract
By electron microscopy, the parenchymal cells of the perianal glands of dogs contain granules which have the morphological features of microbodies (peroxisomes) including marginal plates and, occasionally, dense nucleoids. Like microbodies, they are occasionally attached to the endoplasmic reticulum. Histochemical evidence is presented suggesting that they contain at least one of the peroxisomal enzymes, L-α-hydroxy acid oxidase. The granules of a perianal gland adenoma showed abnormal morphologic variations.
