Sialic acid is secreted by the caput, corpus and cauda epididymides of an adult mature dog. 2- alpha-Chlorohydrin administration results in a considerable reduction in the sialic acid content of the epididymides. 3- Single subcutaneous injection of CdCl2 depletes the content of caput epididymides. Whereas in the corpus and cauda region, the sialic acid contents did not change. 4- The epididymides of caput and cauda ligated side showed a marked decrease in contents of sialic acid as compared with that of non-ligated control epididymides of the same animal. Bilateral vasectomy and 72 hour vascular occlusion resulted in the reduction in the sialic acid content of the epididymides. 5- It is interesting to note that the decrease in sialic acid in the epididymides coincided with the absence of sperms and reduced secretory activity of the luminal epithelium. 6- The significance of these changes is discussed.
