Seeing peroxisomes

Seeing peroxisomes t about the same time that Christian de Duve and his colleagues were describing the biochemistry of lysosomes (see “Catching sight of lysosomes” JCB 168: 174), they biochemically identified (Baudhuin et al., 1965) and purified (Leighton et al., 1968) another enzyme-containing organelle. Initially the organelle was known as the microbody, and de Duve declined to give it a more...

Regarding spatial orientation, olfactory and tactile cues are employed for short-distance; whereas for long-distance, subterranean mammals employ the earth's magnetic field and self-generated (vestibular...

“....On ne trouvera point de Figures dans cet Ouvrage. Les methodes que j’y expose ne demandent ni constructions, ni raisonnements geometriques ou mechaniques, mais seulement des operations algebriques, assujetties a une marche reguliere et uniforme. Ceux qui aiment l’Analyse, verront avec plaisir la Mechanique en devenir une nouvelle branche, et me savront gre d’en avoir etendu ainsi le domain...
