A high resolution micrograph of the Contractile Vacuole Complex membrane system to determine what happens to the CV during systole we observed the CV in a living cell and then fixed the cell as soon a...

Lipid droplet contacts with nucleus and kinetoplast in a Leishmania amastigote inside golden hamster spleen cell. The image shows a transversal section of the cell. Below plasma membrane is possible t...

A high resolution view of the Contractile Vacuole Complex. The CV membrane has collapsed into regularly spaced tubules oriented perpendicular to the microtubular ribbon in this ruptured cell. Some tub...

To determine what happens to the CV during systole we observed the CV in a living cell and then fixed the cell as soon as the CV had opened to the outside. It was apparent that the CV membrane does no...

The contractile vacuole pore is supported on its cytosolic side by a coil of microtubules and other microtubules extend from the pore to the CV membrane. The plasma membrane and CV membrane cover the ...

A monolayer of human foreskin fibroblast cells was infected with Toxoplasma gondii expressing EGFP-tagged TgCentrin2 and mCherry-tagged TgDLC (dynein light chain). Images acquired using API DeltaVisio...

Mitochondria of Vorticella convallaria like other ciliates, have tubular cristae arising from their inner membranes. However, they also have a bundle of filaments (DNA?) that extend through the center...

Kinetoplast and flagellum of a Leishmania promastigote cell. The image shows a longitudinal section through the anterior end of the cell, where the flagellum emerges from the flagellar pocket. The bas...

Single tilt image of a 250 um thick section of a Drosophila S2 cell infected with flock house virus (FHV-1) imaged with intermediate voltage electron microscopy, taken at zero degree tilt. The dark sp...

Transmission electron micrograph of a bone marrow orthochromatic erythroblast from guinea pig showing terminal differentiation in erythrocyte formation. Accompanying the cessation of most transcriptio...
