ELECTRON MICROSCOPE STUDIES OF CELLS BY THE METHOD OF REPLICAS

Albert Claude 1
PMCID: PMC2135877  PMID: 18113914

Abstract

The method of replicas has been applied to the study with the electron microscope of blood cells and bacteria. The results indicate that the method can reveal details of intracellular structures. Nuclei can be perceived, and also cytoplasmic bodies such as mitochondria and vacuoles.
