Goatgland was a term applied c. 1927&ndash 1929, during the period of transition from silent film s to sound film s. It referred to an already completed silent film to which one or more talkie sequences were added in an effort to make the otherwise redundant film more suitable for release in the radically altered market conditions.

Ductless glands are gland s that secrete their product directly onto a surface rather than through a Duct anatomy duct . Examples are the goblet cell s in the Epithelium epithelial surface of the digestive, respiratory, urinary and reproductive systems. Many endocrine gland s are also ductless glands, as they secrete the hormones they produce directly into the blood or lymph system so it will be circulated to the entire body. The pineal gland , the thymus thymus gland , the pituitary gland , the thyroid thyroid gland , the spleen , and the two adrenal gland s are all ductless glands.

Merge Stuffing box discuss Talk Stuffing box Merge discussion date January 2010 Unreferenced stub auto yes date December 2009 A gland is a general type of stuffing box , used to seal a rotating or reciprocating shaft against a fluid. The most common example is in the head of a tap faucet where the gland is usually packed with string which has been soaked in tallow or similar grease. The gland nut allows the packing material to be compressed to form a watertight seal and prevent water leaking up the shaft when the tap is turned on. The gland at the rotating shaft of a centrifugal pump may be packed in a similar way and graphite grease used to accommodate continuous operation. The linear seal around the piston rod of a double acting steam piston is also known as a gland, particularly in marine applications. Likewise the shaft of a handpump or wind pump is sealed with a gland where the shaft exits the borehole. Other types of sealed connections without moving parts are also sometimes called glands for example, the point where an electrical flex exits a conduit is often sealed by an adjustable gland to facilitate assembly and to prevent water ingress. gallery Image Gland packing01.jpg Image Gland packing001.jpg Image Gland packing002.jpg Image Gland packing003.jpg gallery See also Compression seal fitting Labyrinth seal DEFAULTSORT Gland Category Plumbing Category Seals mechanical Mech engineering stub de Stopfbuchse eo topskatolo hu T m t persely nl Stopbuspakking ru tl Glandula ng makinarya tr Salmastra ... more details

Unreferenced stub auto yes date December 2009 The Koschevnikov gland is a gland of the honeybee . It is located near the sting shaft . The gland produces an pheromone honeybee alarm pheromone which is released when a bee stings. The pheromone contains more than 40 different compounds, including pentylacetate , butylacetate , 1 hexanol , n butanol , octanol , hexylacetate , octylacetate and 2 nonanol . These components have a low molar mass and evaporate quickly. It is the least specific of all pheromones. The alarm pheromone is released when a honey bee stings another animal to attract other bees to attack as well. The release of the alarm pheromone may entice more bees to sting at the same location. Smoking the bees can reduce the effectiveness of the pheromone. DEFAULTSORT Koschevnikov Gland Category Bees Biochem stub hu Kozsevnyikov mirigy pl Gruczo Ko ewnikowa ... more details

Unreferenced stub auto yes date December 2009 An oil gland is a Sebaceous gland sebaceous or sebiferous gland that secretes sebaceous matter. Oil glands are part of the body s integumentary system and serve to protect the body against germs. They are mainly situated in the Dermis corium or true skin. True oil glands secrete matter through a duct. Many creatures, such as fish, e.g., have oil glands. In mammals they serve as a protectant and lubricant for hair and skin. In birds it is located at the base of the tail, which also supplies oil that is spread upon the feathers during preening . Ductless glands Ductless gland s situated internally are not true oil glands, however, fishermen will often cleanse bottom feeding fish such as carp by removing an internal organ which is said to be the oil gland . Ductless internal organs are called glands, as well. Having no ducts, they tend to store substances which give a disagreeable taste to a cooked fish. Removing the oil gland from a carp prior to cooking removes some of the accumulated substances, some of which may also be toxic or harmful to a person who eats fish.

They lie anterior to the submandibular gland under the tongue , beneath the mucous membrane of the floor of the mouth. They are drained by 8 20 excretory ducts called the ducts of Rivinus. The largest ball, the sublingual duct of Bartholin joins the submandibular duct to drain through the sublingual caruncle . The sublingual gland consists mostly of Mucous acini capped with serous demilunes and is therefore categorized as a mucous gland. Most of the remaining small sublingual ducts open separately into the mouth on an elevated crest of mucous membrane, the plica fimbriata , formed by the gland and located on either side of the frenulum linguae . The chorda tympani nerve from the facial nerve via the submandibular ganglion is secretomotor to the sublingual glands.
