Isolation and Characterization of Adhesive Secretion from Cuvierian Tubules of Sea Cucumber Holothuria forskåli (Echinodermata: Holothuroidea)

Figure 8

Immunocytochemical localization of adhesive protein in Cuvierian tubules. (a) Sections of Cuvierian tubules incubated with antibody against adhesive protein from Cuvierian tubules (PoAb-Ctub). (b) Sections of Cuvierian tubules incubated with preimmune serum. Nanogold-labeled anti-rabbit IgG was used as secondary antibody. Arrows: nanogold particles; m: mesothelium.
