A METHOD FOR THE QUANTITATIVE ESTIMATION OF CYTOPLASMIC STRUCTURES

A sampling procedure and calculations are described by which electron micrographs of cytoplasmic structures may be quantitatively analyzed. The relative areas occupied by formed bodies and by the "membrane space," the remainder of the cytoplasm, are evaluated. A method for making a measure...

Sumario:A sampling procedure and calculations are described by which electron micrographs of cytoplasmic structures may be quantitatively analyzed. The relative areas occupied by formed bodies and by the "membrane space," the remainder of the cytoplasm, are evaluated. A method for making a measurement of the quantity of endoplasmic reticulum or other membrane profiles is described. The technic and results are illustrated with normal rat liver cells.
