They are usually electron-dense, but cells are frequently observed in which the
subunits are of lower density than the granule matrix. It is not clear whether these
differences represent maturational changes in the granules or are attributable to

In I. holocyclus, cell 'a' of acinus II remains rich in granules throughout feeding
and cell 'b' greatly increases its apparent secretory activity after about 3 days of
attachment (Binnington & Stone 1981). The application of electron microscopy to

Compared to later stages , cell ' b'of the unfed tick has scant cytoplasm which
contains mainly mitochondria , free ribosomes , a small number of flattened
cisternae of RER , and a few granules ( Fig . 4.12 ) . In ticks fed for 2 days the
