The fine structure of the normal chorio-allantoic membrane of the chick-embryo
نویسنده
چکیده
The chorio-allantoic membranes of White Leghorn chick embryos at 10 to 12 days after laying were fixed in Palade's buffered osmium tetroxide or in Luft's potassium permanganate. After fixation in these two ways the general appearance is similar, but there are differences in certain tissue elements. Cell membranes are well preserved after fixation in KMnO4. Certain lipid inclusions in the cytoplasm of the cells of the allantoic layer are well seen after fixation by OsO4, but not after KMnO,; in their places empty vacuoles are seen. Details of the structure of the red blood-corpuscles are more clearly seen after fixation in KMnO4.

Enhancement of growth of chick host spleens following chorio-allantoic membrane grafts of homologous tissues.
T H E phenomenon of enlargement of the host chick embryo spleen, following grafts of homologous adult chicken tissues to the chorio-allantoic membrane (CAM), affords the investigator an excellent tool for the study of growth. Initial observations of this phenomenon were made by Danchakoff (1916) and Murphy (1916). Grafts of adult chicken spleen on the chorio-allantoic membrane of 9-day-old chic...
متن کاملA Preliminary Note on the Cultivation of Vaccinia Virus on the Chorio-Allantoic Membrane of Chick Embryo
mon to encounter reports in which it was claimed that vaccinia virus had been successfully cultivated on lifeless media. These reports have not been confirmed and at present such claims are rarely made. Whereas the cultivation of vaccinia virus in lifeless media has so far not been accomplished, this agent has been cultivated by Haagen (1928), Li and Rivers (1930), Maitland and Laing (1930) and...
متن کاملThe fine structure of the reconstructed neural retina of chick embryos.
The fine structure of reconstructed neural retina formed from dissociated neural retinal cells of 6^-day-oId chick embryos on the chorio-allantoic membrane of chick embryos was examined with the electron microscope. Three nuclear layers (ganglion cell Jayer, inner and outer nuclear layers) and two fibrous layers (inner and outer plexiform layers) are found within the reconstructed retina. Both ...
متن کاملA Study of Human Skin Grafted upon the Chorio-allantois of Chick Embryos
Human skin grafted upon the chorio-allantoic membrane of chick embryos adheres and becomes nourished for as long as 10 days. Occasionally regrafts upon a second egg have succeeded and thus prolonged the vitality of the graft to 14 days. In successful experiments the epithelium of the chorio-allantois fuses with that of the graft, the collagen fibers of the corium interlace with those of the mem...
متن کاملVirus interference. I. The interferon
During a study of the interference produced by heat-inactivated influenza virus with the growth of live virus in fragments of chick chorio-allantoic membrane it was found that following incubation of heated virus with membrane a new factor was released. This factor, recognized by its ability to induce interference in fresh pieces of chorio-allantoic membrane, was called interferon. Following a ...
