Definition:	Any of the coil glands of the skin that secrete sweat.
Comment:	[homology-note] "Sweat glands (also called sudoriferous glands) are unique to mammals.[well established][VHOG]" xsd:string {date_retrieved="2012-09-17", external_class="VHOG:0001467", ontology="VHOG", source="ISBN:978-0471090588 Hildebrand M, Analysis of vertebrate structure (1983) p.101", source="http://bgee.unil.ch/"}; [taxon-note] "In humans a system of apocrine - and merocrine sweat glands is the main method of cooling. Many other mammals rely on panting or other means as a primary source of cooling, but still use sweat glands to aid in body temperature regulation"
