KAJIAN HISTOKIMIA DISTRIBUSI KARBOHIDRAT PADA TESTIS SAPI SUMBA ONGOLE (Bos indicus)

Testis is the male reproductive organ that performs both endocrine and exocrine functions. This study aimed to determine distribution of carbohydrates in testis sumba ongole cattle. The sample consisted six were collected from East Sumba Slaughter House, fixed formalin 10 %, processed histologically, continued with AB pH 2,5 - PAS staining. result showed a weak alcian blue intensity (+) tunica albuginea moderate (++) interstitial connective tissue, basement membrane, tissue lumen seminiferous tubules. A strong (+++) staining was seen spermatogonia, spermatocytes, myoid cells. Spermatids, spermatozoa, sertoli cells negative reaction (-). In intertubular area, Leydig fibroblasts (+++), (++). indicated by membrane variation acidic neutral cattle correlated proliferation different cell types steroidogenic activity at various stages testicular development.
