Buccal Pouch of the Syrian Hamster (Cricetus auratus): Importance in Experimental Oral Biology

ALVIN F. GARDNER 1

1 Department of Pathology, Dental School, Baltimore College of Dental Surgery, University of Maryland, Baltimore, Maryland

The morphology of the buccal pouch of the Syrian hamster was described. It is a particularly desirable test area since it is lined by epithelium uncomplicated by the presence of epithelial adnexae or appendages. This investigation may benefit those investigators desiring to utilize the buccal pouch as a test site.

The localization of acid phosphatase in the basal layer of the squamous epithelium of the wall of the buccal pouch was described for the first time. Acid phosphatase was also described in the mast cells of the connective tissue of the pouch.
