Electron Microscopy of Ultrathin Sections of Bacteria

Ten years have passed since Baker and Pease (1949) published the first electron micrograph of an ultrathin section of a bacterial cell. During this time, more than thirty papers have appeared which have been devoted to the elucidation of the fine structure of the bacterial cell. Due to technical difficulties, to individual differences among species, and to the fact that some authors have limite...

Examination of Lung Parenchyma by Electron Microscopy

In this paper many of the principal struc­ture of the Moral Lung were studied with the help of Electron Microscopy. Detailed descrip­tion was given of Granular Pneumocytes, Membranous Pneumocytes, Macrophages, and Alveolar Capillaries. A discussion followed on the form and function of Granular Pneumo­cytes.  Acknowledgements  I am grateful to the Reza Shah Pahlavi Foundation for its generou...

Isolation of Herpetosiphon giganteus and Ultrastructure Analysis by Electron Microscopy

Herpetosiphon giganteus is a filamentous gliding bacterium. Gliding motility is the movement of the cells over surfaces without the aid of flagella. The mechanism responsible for bacterial gliding motility has not been known and there are only a few data on Herpetosiphon giganteus. The aim of this study was to observe the ultrastructure and negative staining of isolated strains of Herpetosiphon...

Comparison of Aerobic Sporadic Bacilli Structure with Electron Microscopy

I. The existence of differences and similarities in the sur- 4. face features not only of different organisms or groups but also within given species has been demonstrated by a variety of techniques. 2. The different reactions of various organisms to the Gram stain might well be taken as one piece of evidence, the use of the electron microscop and associated prepa­rative techniques (includi...
