Abstract
IN a previous communication in Nature 1, renal cortical reticulin was described as consisting of randomly orientated collagen fibrils embedded in a structureless matrix. X-ray diffraction photographs of these reticulin specimens showed a diffraction pattern quite typical of that of collagen, together with some additional rings; this suggested that the reticulin consisted of collagen together with an unidentified material.
