Sanger, V.L.
Studies by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) of the mucous membrane of the infraorbital turkey sinus revealed a large population of ciliated cells as well as smaller areas of unciliated epithelium. The ciliated cells formed large clumps and irregular rows with no special arrangement. Cilia appeared as individual, long, slender tapering structures with slightly rounded tips. Their population was very dense on the cell surfaces, and their form and erect position resembled tall grass. Microvilli were short, blunt structures covering the surfaces of unciliated cells. Their population varied from one area to another. What appeared to be openings of varied sizes were present on epithelial cell surfaces. They seemed to penetrate the cell to some depth, though no details inside the openings could be visualized. Microvilli were always located on the edges of these openings. Mucus appeared as small white globules clinging to the tips of the cilia or resting on the microvilli.
