The Chemical Composition of Lipid Globules in the Neurones of Helix

نویسنده

  • Y. CHOU
چکیده

I . The three kinds of globules that can be recognized in the living neurone of Helix aspersa are sharply distinguishable from one another by histochemical tests. 2. One kind of globule contains phospholipid; another appears to consist of triglyceride; the third is complex chemically, containing mixed lipids with some protein and carbohydrate. 3. When osmium techniques for the 'Golgi apparatus' are applied to this particular cell, phospholipid is blackened.

The Physical Nature of the Lipid Globules in the Living Neurones of Helix aspersa as indicated by Measurements of Refractive Index

The lipid globules in the neurones of Helix aspersa have been found by Chou in 1957 to be of three distinct kinds that differ from each other in chemical composition. In the present investigation, the refractive indices of these three kinds of globule were measured by the technique for measuring the refractive indices of cytoplasmic inclusions in living cells developed by Ross in 1954, which is...

The Ultra - fine Structure of Lipid Globules in the Neurones of Helix

The three kinds of lipid globules recognizable in the living neurones of Helix aspersa have been examined under the electron microscope. The globules of the kind that can be stained blue with methylene blue during life are seen in electron micrographs as spheres or spheroids, with concentric lamination, after calcium-osmium fixation. After fixation with sucrose-osmium laminated crescentic bodie...

The Cytoplasmlc Inclusions of the Neurones of Helix aspersa

1. The only cytoplasmic inclusions visible in the living neurone are lipid globules and mitochondria. 2. In both Helix and Limnaea there are three kinds of lipid globules, as follows: (a) large globules, yellowish from their carotinoid content; (6) smaller globules, easily coloured by vital dyes; (c) small globules, not colourable by vital dyes. 3. The crescents and rings ('dictyosomes') seen i...

Size-dependent lipid content in human milk fat globules.

Human milk fat globules (HMFGs) are considered to constitute a triglyceride-rich source of fat and energy. However, milk contains lipid particles at different sizes ranging from tens of micrometers to less than 1 microm. In particular, the physical, chemical, and biological properties of submicron sized particles are poorly described. Individual HMFGs were analyzed using laser trapping confocal...

Growth performance, feed efficiency and whole-body chemical composition of the oriental river prawn, Macrobrachium nipponense, fed different dietary protein and lipid levels

A 56 days grow-out experiment with three protein levels (35, 40 and 45%) and three lipid levels (5, 10 and 15%) was conducted to evaluate the optimum protein and lipid ratio for Oriental River Prawn (Macrobrachium nipponense). Four hundred and five prawns, with mean (± SD) weight of 1.40 ± 0.04 g were distributed in 27 glass aquaria and were fed four times daily. Results showed that interaction...
