C. Estacio, Assistant Professor, College of Veterinary Medicine, University of the Philippines Los Baños C. L. Calimlim, Student G. D. de Ocampo, Professor, College of Veterinary Medicine, University of the Philippines Los Baños The spleen of adult male Philippine carabao (Bubalus bubalis L.) was examined histologically using the H & E stain. The carabao had a storage type of spleen characterized by presence of numerous trabeculae and minimal amount of white pulp in the parenchyma. It was enclosed by a thick capsule consisting of two distinct layers: a thick outer dense white fibrous connective tissue layer (DWFCT) and an inner smooth muscle layer. The white pulp was made up of the lymphatic module and peripheral sheath that surrounded the nodular or central arteriole. The red pulp or splenic cord consisted of lymphocytes, phagocyte cells and erythrocytes separated by sinuses.

A-19 GROSS AND MICROSCOPIC ANATOMY OF THE LUNG OF THE PHILIPPINE CARABAO (Bubalus bubalis Linn.)* A. C. Estacio, Assistant Professor, College of Veterinary Medicine, University of the Philippines Los Baños R. L. D. Hontomin, Student G. D. de Ocampo, Professor, College of Veterinary Medicine, University of the Philippines Los Baños The lung of the Philippine carabao was grossly and microscopically examined. Grossly, the left lung was smaller and had 2 lobes, cranial and caudal lobes. The cranial lobe was further divided into cranial and caudal 8 ABSTRACT OF RESEARCHES ON THE PHILIPPINE WATER BUFFALO parts by a U or V shaped notch. The right lung had 4 lobes namely: cranial, middle, caudal and accessory lobes. Microscopically, the lung was enclosed by a capsule composed of 3 layers; mesothelium, elastic, and subserosal layers. The lung parenchyma presented structures typical of the lung of most domestic mammalian species. The wall of the bronchus consisted of 4 layers; 1) tunica mucosa which is made up of pseudostratified columnar ciliated lining epithelium with goblet cells, lamina propria containing loose connective tissue and lymphatic tissue, and a lamina muscularis mucosae of circulatory arranged smooth muscle fibers; 2) tunica submucosa made up of loose connective tissue, solitary lymphatic nodules and mixed but predominantly mucous glands; 3) tunica muscularis contained hyaline cartilage; and 4) tunica adventitia composed of loose connective tissue. The wall of the bronchiole, except that of the respiratory bronchiole, had 2 layers: 1) tunica mucosa made up of simple columnar or cuboidal ephithelium, a lamina propria with thin loose connective tissue and lamina muscularis mucosae with thin circularly arranged smooth muscles; and 2) tunica submucosa with thin layer of loose connective tissue. Respiratory bronchioles were not frequently observed. The wall of the bronchial part consisted of 1 layer; tunica mucosa composed of simple cuboidal epithelium, lamina propria with very thin loose connective and lamina muscularis mucosae with thin smooth fiber. The alveolar part was lined by simple squamous epithelium. The alveolar duct, alveolar sac and alveoli were typical of other mammalian species.

A-20 ULTRASTRUCTURAL OBSERVATIONS OF THE CECAL MUCOSA OF THE PHILIPPINE CARABAO (Bubalus bubalis) * M. A. C. Estacio, Instructor, College of Veterinary Medicine, University of the Philippines Los Baños C. P. Maala, Professor, College of Veterinary Medicine, University of the Philippines Los Baños The cecal mucosa of the Philippine carabao (Bubalus bubalis) was studied using transmission electron microscope. The cells lining it generally resemble those previously described in other species. The surface epithelium was lined primarily by columnar absorptive cells and a few goblet cells. The glandular epithelium was lined by goblet cells, enteroendocrine cells and
undifferentiated cells. Mucigenous granules of varying degrees of density were observed in the cytoplasm of the goblet cells. Based on the shape, density and distribution of the secretory granules, two types of enteroendocrine cells were observed. Type 1 cells had pleomorphic secretory granules of varying density in its infranuclear region, while type 2 cells had generally rounded dense granules throughout its cytoplasm. No Paneth cells and non-epithelial cells were observed. The cell types noted in the lamina propria were plasma cells, mast cells, eosinophils and neutrophils. The ultrastructural features of these cells did not significantly differ from what had been previously reported in other species except that in plasma cell, the Russell bodies were absent and in the eosinophils, the nucleus was not lobed.

A-21 HAIR MEDULLARY PATTERNS IN PHILIPPINE WATER BUFFALO (Bubalus bubalis) M. L. A. Santiago-Flores, Resident Veterinarian, Veterinary Teaching Hospital, College of Veterinary Medicine, University of the Philippines Los Baños C. P. Maala, Professor, College of Veterinary Medicine, University of the Philippines Los Baños J. S. Masangkay, Professor, College of Veterinary Medicine, University of the Philippines Los Baños The medullary patterns of hairs taken from the forehead, lateral surface of forelimb, hindlimb, dorsum, ventral abdominal wall and tail of Philippine water buffalo (Bubalus bubalis, Linnaeus) were examined. The hair medullary patterns in the six body regions varied depending on the age (young vs old) and sex (male vs female) of the Philippine water buffalo. Young male buffalo had predominantly continuous nodose or homogenous type. Adult male and female buffalo lacked medulla typical of absent type. Young female Philippine water buffalo showed a more varied distribution of hair medullary patterns with the fragmental type restricted to the forehead, and the other body regions with two to four patterns in varying proportions. Based on this study, it would therefore be possible to utilize differences in the hair medullary patterns to distinguish adult male buffalo from adult female, young male and female buffalo.

A-22 GROSS ANATOMY OF THE TAIL OF THE PHILIPPINE CARABAO (Bubalus bubalis)* N. M. D. Gagni, Student The gross anatomy of the tail of the Philippine carabao was studied by gross dissection and compared it to that of the ox. It was found out that the first three vertebra of the tail of the Philippine carabao were similar to typical vertebrae. It consisted of a body and arch and processes. The caudal part of the series was reduced into cylindrical rods. The body of the vertebra was more cylindrical than that of the ox. The arch and processes were more or less similar in shape and structure. Mamillary and accessory processes were absent in both species. Lymph nodes were not present in the area while the lymph vessels may have been present in the lymphatic anatomy of the tail of the carabao but these vessels were to minute for identification. The arthrological anatomy of the tail presents no special ligaments in both species. The thickenings of the fascia function as ligaments. Intervertebral discs were thicker in the carabao than in the ox. The blood vascular anatomy of the tail showed that the tail was vascularized by four (4) vessels namely: (a) the median caudal artery and vein, (b) the superficial lateral vein, (c) the dorsolateral caudal artery and vein. The superficial lateral caudal artery and vein was present in the carabao but absent in the ox and was not accompanied by any artery of like name. The first two vessels were single while the other two are paired. The caudal nerves of the tail number five to seven (5-7) pairs in both species. They terminated at the level of the third and fourth caudal vertebra. The muscular anatomy of the tail of the carabao showed eight (8) muscles compared to that of the ox which has seven (7). A rectococcygeus muscle was present in the carabao but absent in the ox. This muscle was also present in the horse and dog. There were slight differences in the origin, insertion and relations of the muscles. The present study also revealed that no two tails have exactly identical anatomical patterns Keywords: gross anatomy, tail, Philippine carabao, Bubalus bubalis * Undergraduate Thesis, College of Agriculture and Forestry, DMMMSU, Bacnotan, La Union, 1991.
