Description

Newt (Notopthalmus viridescens) erythrocytes were isolated in 0.1M KCl, spread on the surface of 5mM Na-citrate, picked up on formvar-carbon films, fixed with glutaraldehyde and paraformaldehyde and negatively stained with 2% sodium tetraborate. Images were recorded at 40KX and accelerating voltage of 1MeV at the University of Wisconsin HVEM facility.This image was taken with a specimen tilt of 45 degrees. A grouped image of the same field at a 55 degree tilt provides a stereo view of the tangle of chromatin fibers emanating from the dispersed nucleus.
