Reticular fibers, reticular fibres or reticulin is a type of fiber in connective tissue composed of type III collagen secreted by reticular cells. Reticular fibers crosslink to form a fine meshwork (reticulin). This network acts as a supporting mesh in soft tissues such as liver, bone marrow, and the tissues and organs of the lymphatic system.
White pulp is a histological designation for regions of the spleen, that encompasses approximately 25% of splenic tissue. White pulp consists entirely of lymphoid tissue.
The fibroelastic coat of the spleen invests the organ, and at the hilum is reflected inward upon the vessels in the form of sheaths. From these sheaths, as well as from the inner surface of the fibroelastic coat, numerous small fibrous bands, the trabeculae of the spleen, emerge from all directions; these uniting, constitute the frame-work of the spleen.
Periarteriolar lymphoid sheaths are a portion of the white pulp of the spleen. They are populated largely by T cells and surround central arteries within the spleen; the PALS T-cells are presented with blood borne antigens via myeloid dendritic cells.
The trabecular arteries are the name of the branches of the splenic artery after it passes into the trabeculae of the spleen, where it branches. When these arteries then reach the white pulp, and become covered with periarteriolar lymphoid sheaths, the name changes again to central arteries. Branches of the central arteries are given to the red pulp, and these are called penicillar arteries).
The trabecular veins are the largest veins inside the spleen. It drains the blood collected in the sinuses of the pulp.

The Journal für praktische Chemie, was a German-language scientific journal for chemistry. The journal was founded in 1828 by Otto Linné Erdmann (1804–1869) as the Journal für technische und ökonomische Chemie, the oldest chemical trade journal in Germany. From 1828 to 1869 Erdmann was the editor, along with Franz Wilhelm Schweigger-Seidel, Richard Felix Marchand, and Gustav Werther. From 1870 to 1884 Hermann Kolbe was the editor-in-chief. From 1879 to 1884 Ernst von Meyer worked as co-editor under Kolbe and became editor-in-chief upon Kolbe's death in 1884 and continued in that capacity until his own death in 1916. Beginning in 1917 the journal was edited by Julius Bredt, Theodor Curtius, Karl Elbs, Otto Fischer (1852–1932), Fritz Foerster, and Berthold Rassow with August Darapsky as editor-in-chief. Beginning in 1953 the Journal für praktische Chemie was published by the Chemische Gesellschaft der DDR.
