Abstract :Five cell types had different size, number and morphological features were identified in salivary glands of Helix lucorum in the both periods and they were called as Type 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5. As a result of the histochemical applications, it was detected that the cells of salivary glands in the hibernation period showed stronger reaction than in the active period. Aganist not all histochemical stainings in the vakuoles of the cell called Type 1, reaction was not observed. While the neutral glycoconjugate were found in all cell types in active period, they were observed only in the cell type 1 in hibernation period. It was detected that unlike other cells the sulphated acidic glycoconjugate was decreased in type 1 and 2 in hibernation period. Also it was determined that size of the cells was decreased and number of the cells was increased in hibernation period.
