Morphology and Epithelial Ion Transport of the Alkaline Gland in the Atlantic Stingray (Dasyatis sabina)

The alkaline glands are two fluid-filled sacs that lie on the ventral, posterior surface of each kidney in skates and rays. In this study, the morphology, transepithelial ion transport, fluid constituents, and histochemistry of the alkaline glands of the Atlantic stingray, Dasyatis sabina, were inve...
