The electron microscopy of vaccinia-diseased tissues

Zeitschrift für Zellforschung und Mikroskopische Anatomie Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Summary

Many hundreds of electron micrographs have been made on a corresponding number of sections through chicken embryo tissues diseased with vaccine virus. The fully developed elementary bodies of this virus are easily recognized in such sections. Search has been made for evidence of proliferation in chorioallantoic membranes infected for various lengths of time. This has given evidence bearing on several hypotheses that can be offered concerning the growth of the virus particles; but it does not select in satisfactory fashion between them.
