Fine structure of the cilia of rotifers.

The fine structure of the coronal cilia of the rotifer Philodina citrina has been studied in detail. Specimens were fixed with OsO(4) and embedded in butyl-methyl methacrylate, Epon 812, or Vestopal and sectioned with a Porter-Blum microtome. The details of structure of the rootlets, basal bodies, basal plates, and free cilia are described. The general structure of the rotifer ciliary apparatus conforms well to that established for other species. One of the main observations is the difference in structure of the peripheral filaments in the opposing halves of a cross-section of the free cilium. Also, in longitudinal sections evidence is offered for the existence of a helical structure in the peripheral filaments.

Nonidentity of fetuin and protein growth (flattening) factor.

Fetuin, a fetal calf serum glycoprotein, appeared to possess activity with cultured mammalian cells similar to that of a protein growth factor partially purified from adult bovine and human sera. Column chromatography, however, yielded highly purified but inactive fetuin. These results leave open questions regarding the role of this interesting and readily purified protein.
