Abstract:: Tissue obtained by punch biopsy from the antebrachial organ of Lemur catta has been studied with the electron microscope. This study describes the fine structure of the interstitial cells found between apocrine sweat glands in the antebrachial organ. These large polygonal cells are of three types: light cells, dark cells,...

Creator:: Wyandt, Herman Edwin, 1939-
Abstract:: A comparative study was made of the morphology and histology of three major groups of light organs in the genus Lampanyctus of the family Myctophidae for the species, L. leucopsarus, L. ritteri, L. nannochir, and L. regalis. The species can be divided according to their ranges in depth, the first...

Creator:: Fuller, Eugene G.
Abstract:: The distributions of alkaline phosphatase, acid phosphatase, non-specific esterases, and glycogen were described for the antennal glands of the freshwater crayfish, Pacifastacus, and the marine crabs Cancer and Pugettia. Alkaline phosphatase is confined primarily to the luminal edge of the labyrinth in all of the above forms whereas acid phosphatase...

Abstract:: Electron microscopic, histochemical and thin-layer chromatographic techniques have been used to study some cytological changes associated with seasonal lipid deposition in the liver of Ascaphus. Histochemical and chromatographic information has shown that unsaturated triglycerides occur in great quantities in the liver of pre-ovulatory females and may serve as a solvent...

Creator:: Whitehead, Russell Albert
Abstract:: Primary monolayer cultures of chick renal epithelial cells grown on plastic coverslips were reversibly dissociated with the chelating agent ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA). The cellular responses during dissociation and reaggregation in Hank's balanced salt solution (BSS) were observed with phase optics and recorded by time-lapse cinemicrography. The epithelial cells grow as...

Creator:: Wyandt, Herman Edwin, 1939-
Abstract:: Part of the Y chromosome in humans is detectable as a brightly fluorescing body in interphase nuclei stained with quinacrine dyes. This fluorescent body when stained with quinacrine mustard dihydrochloride, in cells from some 15 human subjects, was seen to manifest a variable morphology which appeared to be related to...

Creator:: Bartlett, Bruce Robert
Abstract:: The energy strategies of early development of the Pacific Oyster, Crassostrea gigas, were examined. Changes in proteins, total carbohydrates, free reducing sugars and total and neutral lipids were determined for the unfertilized egg and larval stages through 13 days post-settlement. During early larval stages neutral lipid levels decreased and provided...
