The C2 - cell is commonly situated either in the polar or equatorial region of the
acinus adjacent to an a - cell . It has large secretory granules with a pale pink
PAS staining reaction . In electron micrographs the granules ( up to 2 um ) are ...

4.5.5 Salivary glands of male ticks Light microscopy of the single type of acinus (
acinus IV ) of male ticks indicated that there was only one cell type ( Binnington &
Stone 1981 ) . Electron microscopy shows that this conclusion is probably ...

Unlike some ixodids , the type I acini do not seem to decrease in size during
feeding . This may indicate a different role for this acinus type off the host or
during feeding compared to some ixodid species . As in ixodids , their direct
attachment to ...
