Hemadsorption of Mumps Virus Examined by Light and Electron Microscopy

Hemadsorption of mumps virus examined by light and electron microscopy.

The hemadsorption (HAD) reaction of chick embryo cells infected with mumps virus was studied by means of light and electron microscopy, with special reference to the plasma membrane of the infected cell. The concomitant observation of membrane-free aggregates of viral nucleocapsid in the cytoplasm and attached red blood cells on the surface of the same cell indicated that only infected cells he...

Electron microscopy of African swine fever virus hemadsorption.

A hemadsorption reaction for African swine fever virus (ASFV) was developed by W. A. Malmquist and D. Hay (Am. J. Vet. Res. 21: 104, 1960), and was later modified by W. R. Hess and D. E. DeTray (Bull. Epizootic Diseases Africa 8:317, 1960), as a diagnostic test for African swine fever. Specific hemadsorption takes place with ASFV-infected swine bone marrow and leukocyte (buffy coat) cell cultur...

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...
