摘要
An immunohistochemical analysis of the eggshell membranes shows the occurrence of type X collagen while type I collagen was not detected by using an appropriate monoclonal antibody with untreated shell membranes. A positive immuno-reaction for type I collagen was obtained after digestion of the shell membranes with pepsin. These observations indicate the possibility that type I collagen epitope was masked by type X collagen and that type X collagen may serve as an inhibitory boundary for biomineralization. © 1991 Informa UK Ltd All rights reserved: reproduction in whole or part not permitted.
