Ultrastructural Immunochemistry [PDF]
INTRODUCTIONThe use of colloidal gold technology was undoubtedly the most significant event in the development of immunochemistry. Gold particles are particularly useful for transmission electron microscopy (TEM) studies, because they scatter electrons strongly and even small particles are clearly visible under the electron microscope.

Follicular complex may predict reproductive tactics in siluriform fishes
In this study, we evaluated the morphology and morphometry of the layers that make up the follicular complex surrounding mature oocytes in the six fish species Auchenipterichthys longimanus, Ageneiosus ucayalensis, Hypophthalmus marginatus, Baryancistrus

Plasmolysis: Loss of Turgor and Beyond
Plasmolysis is a typical response of plant cells exposed to hyperosmotic stress. The loss of turgor causes the violent detachment of the living protoplast from the cell wall. The plasmolytic process is mainly driven by the vacuole.

Ultrastructure Organization of Human Trabeculae Assessed by 3D sSAXS and Relation to Bone Microarchitecture. [PDF]
Although the organization of bone ultrastructure, i.e. the orientation and arrangement of the mineralized collagen fibrils, has been in the focus of research for many years for cortical bone, and many models on the osteonal arrangement have been proposed,

Endocytosis and Digestion in Carnivorous Pitcher Plants of the Family Sarraceniaceae
Highly evolved carnivorous plants secrete digestive enzymes for degradation of trapped animals and absorb whole macromolecules from their prey by means of endocytosis.

Bryophytes are widely used to monitor air quality. Due to the lack of a cuticle, their cells can be compared to the roots of crop plants. This study aimed to test a hypothetical relation between metal tolerance and cell shape in biomonitoring mosses ...

Ultrastructure of osteoblastoma [PDF]
The ultrastructure of three cases of osteoblastoma is described. The osteoblasts resemble normal osteoblasts with a few exceptions: irregular, indented nuclei, and occasional mitochondria with curved cristae and electron-lucent areas. The osteocytes and osteoclasts basically resemble their normal counterparts.
