Abstract

Preliminary to a study of benign appendageal tumors of the skin, the results of which will be published separately, the following study of normal apocrine and eccrine glands was undertaken. The use of the periodic acid-Schiff (PAS) and Alcian Blue (AB) stains separately on tissue sections and the clarification of the two color reactions of the PAS stain by Alcian Blue (1) has lead to a better histochemical characterization of some of the structures of normal human eccrine and apocrine glands.
