Description
Summary:Preparation: chemically fixed tissue; tissue in plastic embedment Relation to intact cell: microtome-sectioned tissue Item type: film Imaging mode: transmission electron microscopy (TEM) Parameter imaged: electron density Source of contrast: differences in adsorption or binding of stain Visualization methods: uranyl salt; osmium tetroxide; lead salt Data qualification: Processed ... : Transmission electron micrograph of a thin section of the liver of a 1-day old rat showing a grazing view of rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER, sometimes termed granular endoplasmic reticulum. The 'rough' or 'granular' term refers to the membrane-attached polyribosomes (also known as polysomes) which often occur in a spiral or rosettal conformation. RER-associated polyribosomes are the sites of synthesis of proteins secreted into the RER cisternae and destined for export from the cell. ...
