Detecting Intestinal Goblet Cells of the Broadgilled Hagfish <i>Eptatretus cirrhatus</i> (Forster, 1801): A Confocal Microscopy Evaluation

Detecting Intestinal Goblet Cells of the Broadgilled Hagfish <i>Eptatretus cirrhatus</i> (Forster, 1801): A Confocal Microscopy Evaluation

The fish intestine operates as a complicated interface between the organism and the environment, providing biological and mechanical protections as a result of a viscous layer of mucus released by goblet cells, which serves as a barrier against bacteria, viruses, and other pathogens, and contributes...
