Abstract:
:The fine structural changes associated with cell growth and toxin production have been examined in Vibrio cholerae strain 569B. No morphological alterations in the cell envelope are apparent during logarithmic growth with thin-section techniques. However, internal swelling, suggesting alteration of cell envelope permeability, is evident particularly during the late logarithmic and early stationary phases of growth. Certain extracellular material demonstrable with negative-stain techniques does appear during the period of toxin production. The possible origin of this material is discussed. The effects of high temperature (37 C) and aeration on cell structure are also examined.
