Abstract:
The ultrastructural morphology of human placental and mouse placental nematosomes has been investigated. The description includes a three-dimensional analysis of the shape of the organelles based on serial sectioning, measurements of the repeat distance of the subunit fibre of the organelle derived by optical diffraction analysis and the results of an ultrastructural cytochemical study designed to test whether the organelle contains nucleic acid.
