Application of scanning electron microscopy in an analysis of the retina of lower vertebrates.

Abstract:

:The scanning electron microscope (SEM) is a useful tool in the study of the retina of lower vertebrates. SEM analysis (preparation over the critical point) offers a useful addition to the existing histological preparations. It is suitable for a comparative analysis, in which the arrangement of different cellular elements and their overall distribution is studied.
