A transmission electron microscopic study was performed on the ultrastructure of the tegumental layer of GymophoLloines seoi (Digenea: Gymnophallidae) metacercarlae and adults. The metacercariae were obtained from naturally infected oysters, Crcssosoea gigas, and the adults from experimentally infected C3H mice. The tegumental layer generally revealed a small number of foldings, numerous small vacuoles, sines, and muscle bundles. Beneath the muscle layer, nuclei of the tegumental cells were located. There was little difference in the structure of the tegument between the metacercariae and adults. The oral sucker, having well-developed muscle layers, showed a similar structure to the ventral sucker except numerous foldlngs in the ventral sucker. The ventral pit was surrounded by a thin spcpiu layer, where a number of microtubules and mitochondria were seen. Around the ventral pit located well-developed circular and longitudinal muscles. The results showed that the ultrastructure of the tegumental layer of G. seoi metacercariae and adults revealed little difference from other trematodes in general. The ventral pit, a peculiar structure of this trematode, seems to function as a sphincter or an accessory adhesive organ.

The authors observed the ultrastructure of the mucous glandular epithelial cells in the amphibian skin by mean of electron microscope. The specimens from the experimental animals were fixed in 2.5% glutaraldehyde-oaraformaldehyde fixative in phosphate buffer at pH 7.2 prior to fixation in 1% osmium tetroxide, dehydrated in graded ethanol and acetone, embedded in Epon 812 mixture, and sectioned with Sorvall MT-2 ultramicrotome. The ultrasections were contrasted with uranyl acetate and lead citrate and observed with a JEOL-100B electron microscope. The results were as follows: 1. The cutaneous mucous glands in amphibia consisted of the glandular epithelial and the myoepithelial cells. 2. Several different cells in ultrastructure were observed in the mucous glandular epithelium of the adult amphibian skin. a. The dark and the light cells were observed in Hynobius leechi. b. The mitochondria-rich and the round secretory granule-containing cells were observed in Bombina orientalis. c. The round secretory granule-containing and the foam-like granule mass-containing cells were observed in Kaloula tornieri. d. The cutaneous mucous gland of Rana nigromaculata were divided into two types: A and B-type glands. In the A-type mucous gland, the mitochondria-rich and the round secretory granule-containing cells and in the B-type mucous gland, the mitochondria-rich, the secretory granule-containing and the ER-rich cells were observed. 3. Based upon the above findings, the authors infer that the mucous granular epithelium of the amphibian skin consists of the mitochondria-rich undifferentiated, the secetory granule-containing and mature, and the ER-rich evacuated cells.

The ultrastructure of freeze-substituted Malpighian tubule cells of German cockroach after rapid freezing was compared to that fixed with conventional chemical fixation. As results, freeze-substitution proved to be the superior technique revealing much more structural details of the tissue cells. Especially, all kinds of membrane structures including infoldings, microfilament, microtubules and ribosomes were best preserved in this material.

A histochemical and ultrastructural study on the salivary gland of a freshwater snail Radix auricularia coreana was conducted .The epithelial cells of the salivary gland are composed of 9 types of cells. Two types out of them work as frame cells supporting the epithelium and the secretory cells embedded within the epithelium Seven types of secretory cells are classifiable depend on their histochemical reactions and ultrastructures. The materials secreted by the secretory cells are neutral mucopolysaccharide, acid mucopolysaccharide, and glycogen.

거미류의 독선에서 분배되는 독액(venom)은 생성지는 위치에 따라 독물질과 점액물질의 두가지 종류로 구분되었다. 선 분비부의 전부와 분비 관에서 분비되는 독물질은 전자밀도가 높은 구형 과립의 형태로 합성된 후, 부분분비에 의해 내강으로 방출되었고, 선분비부의 후부에서 생성되는 점액물질은 커다란 덩어리의 형태로 집적된 후, 세포질의 일부와 함께 이출분비의 기작에 의해 방출되었다. 이들은 공통적으로 선상피세포에 발달된 조면소포체와 골지복합체를 거쳐서 생성되었으며, 분비물질의 성숙 단계에 따라 다양한 형태적 변이가 관찰되었다.

화학적 암 유발물인 diethylnitrosamine(DENA) 연여로 야기되는 흰쥐 (Sprague Dawley) 간세포의 변화 양상을 전자현미경과 silver염색방법으로 관찰하였다. DENA는 간세포내의 핵, 미토콘드리아, 담즙관에 뚜렷한 형태적 변화를 일으켰으며 인(nucleolus)의 크기와 수도 증가하였다. 또한 정상세포보다 인 (nucleolus) 부위의 염색 정도도 강하였는데 이것은 silver granule이 서로 연결되어 망상구조를 형성하기 때문인 것으로 생각되며 이들 망상구조는 순수한 rDNA부분과 핵내 단백질이 인내에서 서로 엉킨어 나타나는 현상일 것으로 사료된다. 또한 DENA투여 켤과 나타난 인의 크기와 인부위의 수적 증가현상의 결과로 rRNA 합성물의 변화를 유추할 수 있었다.

꼬리명주나비(서ericinus montela) 조혈기관의 분포 및 미세구조를 광학현미경과 투과전자현미경을 이용하여 관찰하였다. 꼬리명주나비의 조혈기관은 흉부 제 2 · 3체절의 날개발생부위(imaginal wing disc)에 부착되었거나 인접해 있었다 각각의 조혈기관은 비세포성 기저 막으로 둘러싸인 여러 개의 조혈섬으로 구성되어 있었으며, 조혈 섬들은 compact islet(치밀하게 배열된 조혈섬)과 loose islet(느슨하게 배열된 조혈섬)으로 구분되었다. 혈구의 분화는 loose islet 내에서 진행되었으며, 시원세포로부터 원시혈구. 부정형혈구, 과립혈구, 소구혈구가 독자적 경로를 통해 분화되었다.
