Toadfish saccular hair cell bundle has a preferred orientation in the otolithic membrane
Hearing Research, 1990 The macula of the saccule of the toadfish, Opsanus tau, is covered by an otolithic membrane containing sockets into which the stereocilia and kinocilia of the hair cells project. We have found that the hair cell bundle has a distinct eccentric orientation within this space of the otolithic socket.

Visualisation of domains in the avian tectorial and otolithic membranes with monoclonal antibodies
Hearing Research, 1994 The staining patterns observed with six monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) raised in vitro against a fraction derived from the utricular macula were examined with cryosections of the auditory and vestibular organs of the avian inner ear. These antibodies revealed several distinct domains within the gelatinous membranes.

The Otolithic Membrane Mediates Otolith Organization
The FASEB Journal, 2016Otoconia are small biocrystals that link mechanical forces to the sensory hair cells in the mammalian utricle and saccule, a process essential for sensing linear acceleration and gravity as well as maintaining bodily balance. In fish, structurally similar otoliths mediate both balance and hearing.

Improved preservation of the otolithic membranes
Proceedings, annual meeting, Electron Microscopy Society of America, 1987Any explanation of vestibular micromechanics must include the roles of the otolithic and cupular membranes. However, micromechanical models of vestibular function have been hampered by unresolved questions about the microarchitectures of these membranes and their connections to stereocilia and supporting cells.

A finite element model of the otolith membrane
Computers in Biology and Medicine, 1977Abstract This paper describes a finite element model of the otolith membrane. The system of differential equations governing the displacement of the membrane is expressed in the equivalent variational form. The region occupied by the membrane is divided into triangles and the computer is used to determine the linear combination of the functions ...

Otolithic Membranes of the Saccule and Utricle in Man
Science, 1967The otolithic membranes of the human saccule and utricle can be prepared as whole mounts or surface specimens for microscopic examination. They are not simple, homogeneous, gelatinous structures as heretofore described. Instead, each shows a definite and characteristic fibrillar design, which appears to be correlated with the known cytoarchitectural ...
