A study was carried out to elucidate the localization as well as the nature of the silver-reducing (Argentaffin) granules in the hepatoblasts of some sheep foeti. Such granules were demonstrated in the cytoplasm of the hepatoblasts of 120+/-3 days sheep foeti old. Bile canaliculi were also observed in the livers of these foeti. Such type of grannules are either the secretory products of the liver cells (Hepatoblasts) or may be other compounds like biogenic amines, aldehydes, peptides, phenols, pigment, etc.
