Abstract
DEVELOPING further the technique employed in our laboratories by Zalokar1, we have obtained in our electron microscope (Trüb Täauber, electrostatic) a very large number of pictures of chromosomes of the ovocytes of Triton. The accompanying reproduction shows a typical one. These chromosomes were fixed with acetic acid and ‘microcentrifuged’2 on the collodion membrane.
