Localization of Amylase in Major Salivary Glands of the Guinea Pig

RICHARD J. SMITH 1 and JACK FROMMER 1

1 Department of Anatomy, Schools of Medicine and Dental Medicine, Tufts University, Boston, Massachusetts 02111, USA

The localization of amylase activity in the major salivary glands of adult male and female guinea pigs was determined by a substrate film technique. Parotid and submandibular glands showed intense activity localized to the acini. Only a weak reaction in the lumen of intralobular ducts was observed in sublingual glands. The sex differences in amylase activity reported in other commonly studied laboratory rodents were not detected in this species.
