A high magnification view of the intimate docking of acidosomes with the phagosome is particularly apparent where the P-face of the acidosome lies against the E-face of the phagosome. Numerous large IMPs are seen on this face on both the vesicle proper and on its membrane indentations. Few IMPs, but some pits, are seen on the E-face of the acidosome. TEM taken on 5/26/92 by R. Allen with Zeiss 10A operating at 80kV. Neg. 19,800X. Bar = 0.2?m. A print of the negative was scanned and processed in Photoshop. This image is best used for qualitative analysis.
