Abstract: The distribution and location of acid phosphatase (ACP), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), peroxidase (POD), non-specific esterase (NSE) and mucous cells were qualitatively and quantitatively determined in the intestine of common carp Cyprinuscarpio var. Jian with body mass of (150±30)g using enzyme histochemical, densitometry technology and statistical analyses. ACP activity was found in the supranuclear region of enterocytes and the lamina propria of the intestine, with the strongest staining in the middle intestine. ALP activity was detected in the striated border and lamina propria of the intestine, with the strongest staining (activity) of ALP in middle intestine and the minimal in the anterior intestine. POD activity was primarily found in the lamina propria and the mucosal muscularis of the intestinal, with the strongest staining in the posterior intestine. The activity of NSE was especially significant in epithelial cells and the staining intensity was strongest in the posterior intestine. Alcian blue (pH 2.5) periodic acid Schiff (AB-PAS) histochemical results revealed that in the intestines there were three types of mucous cells including type Ⅰ, type Ⅱ, and type Ⅲ, which were distributed in the epithelial cells of the mucosa in the anterior intestine, and in the epithelium and lamina propria of the middle intestine and posterior intestine. In conclusion, the activities of ACP, ALP, NSE, and POD and mucous cells were generally distributed in the intestine of common carp, and the characteristics of the enzyme activity and mucous cell distribution were varied with different parts in the intestine.
