Table 1. Immunogold densities, EAAT antibodies, type I hair cell and calyx ending.

EAAT4 EAAT5
Sample length, µm Particle density per µm Sample length, µm Particle density per µm
Hair-cell membrane 45.1 0.24±0.059 62.3 0.88±0.058
Calyx inner membrane 45.1 0.22±0.060 62.3 0.91±0.29
Calyx outer membrane 64.1 0.11±0.026 51.9 0.038±0.017
Hair-cell cytoplasm 11753* 0.004±0.0005 9385* 0.002±.0007
Calyx cytoplasm 19370* 0.001±0.0003 17537* 0.001±0.0004

Sample lengths, total of five sections for each transporter. Particle density ± SE is based on a regression passing through zero between the sample length and the number of particles for each of the five samples.

For the cytoplasm samples, length is multiplied by 0.05 µm to get the sample area.
