Abstract:
Present study was done to explore the histology of teat in 24 Barbari goats collected from slaughter house Fair Export Pvt. Ltd. situated at Barabanki, Uttar Pradesh which comes under Eastern Plain zone. The teats of Barbari goats were symmetrical in size and conical in shape and comprised of teat canal, Furstenberg rosette and streak canal. Only one sinus, one teat canal and one teat orifice were reported in teat of barbari goat. The streak canal was noticed at the distal section of duct system and it was lined by the epithelium extending from the teat epidermis. In lactating animals, stratified columnar epithelium bordered the teat canal. Close to the tip of teat, cornified layer of squamous epithelium were seen. On the Furstenberg’s rosette, the epithelium lining the streak canal transformed from stratified squamous keratinized to two-cell layered cuboidal epithelium. In lactating teats, the accessory lactiferous glands were fully developed.
Highlights
- One sinus, one teat canal and one teat orifice were reported in teat of barbari goat.
- Epithelium of streak canal transformed from stratified squamous keratinized transformed into two-cell layered cuboidal epithelium.
- Development of the accessory lactiferous glands in lactating teats.
