Acid Glycosaminoglycans and Sialic Acid Content in Salivary Glands of Rats

Abstract
Sialic acid concentrations were strong in retrolingual and moderate in submaxillary glands. Uronic acid concentrations were high in retrolingual, intermediate in parotid, and low in submaxillary glands. The major fraction in the submaxillary and parotid glands was hialuronic acid, whereas in the retrolingual gland, the major fractions were glycoproteins and dermatan-sulfate.
