Quick-freeze deep-etch of an ampulla. The P-fracture face has numerous IMPs. The microtubular ribbon now forms two bands next to this ampulla. The ribbons will split into additional bands as they pass on to and around the collecting canal. TEM taken on 1/14/95 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. Additional information available at (http://www5.pbrc.hawaii.edu/allen/).
