The unbranched nonarticulated laticifer, including its latex, and capitate glandular trichomes from Cannabis sativa L. were analyzed in fresh and cryostat preparations with histochemical procedures for the presence of cannabinoids, alkaloids, and other selected cellular components. A positive response to cannabinoid indicators, Duquenois-Negm, fast blue salt B, Gibb, and Beam reagents occurred in laticifers, as well as exuded latex and in disc cells of epidermal capitate glandular trichomes. No response or only an apparent background response to these reagents was detected in other cells. Alkaloids were detected histochemically in laticifers and exuded latex with Wagner, Dittmar, Ellram, chromic acid, Hager, and Dragendorff
