Electron Microscopy of the Senile Changes in Lens Epithelium

Electron Microscopy of the Uterine Epithelium in the Rabbit

The ultrastructure of the uterine epithelium has been studied in estrous, ovariectomized, pregnant, and pseudopregnant rabbits. Tissue for light microscopy was fixed in Bouin's solution and stained with hematoxylin and eosin, by the periodic acid-Schiff (PAS) method, and with methylene blue. Tissue for electron microscopy was fixed in 1 per cent osmium tetroxide in White's saline and embedded i...

Electron Microscopy of Fowl Pox Virus

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...

The Electron Microscopy of the Normal Human Lens.

A general review is presented of our current understanding of the fine structure of the lens, its capsule, and zonular fibers, and illustrated with original material from the human lens. The principal points emphasized include the nature of the capsule as a laminated basement membrane; the relative paucity of extracellular space; the presence of interdigitating cell processes in the epithelium ...

Scanning electron microscopy of the developing chick anterior corneal epithelium.

The anterior corneal epithelium of the developing chick was observed with the scanning electron microscope at various stages of development. In the earlier stages, up to about 15 days of incubation, the cells are characterized by regular polygonal outlines and a proliferation of microvilli on the surface. The microvilli then begin to coalesce and flatten so that the surface is rather smooth by ...
