Ill albuminoid, or mixture "of albuminoids, but the organ- ized granules found in the plant, of which the albumin- oids are chief or characteristic ingredients. In Fig. is is represented a magnified slice through the outer cells (bran) of a husked oat The cavities of these outer cells, a, c, are chiefly occupied with very fine grains of aleurone. In one cell, b, are seen the much larger starch grains. In the interior of the oat kerne], and other cereal seeds, the cells are chiefly occu- pied with starch, but throughout grains of aleurone are more or less intermingled. Fig. 19 exhibits a section of the exterior part of a flax-seed. The outer cells, a, contain vegetable muci- lage ; the interior cells, e, are mostly filled with minute grains of aleurone, among which droplets of oil, /, are distributed. In Fig. 30 are shown some of the forms assumed by in- '*^ dividual albuminoid- a grains ; a is aleurone from the seed of the vetch, h from the .castor-bean, c from flax-seed, d from the fruit of the bayberry {Myrica cerifera) and e from mace (an appendage to the nutmeg, or fruit of the Myristica moschata). Crystalloid aleurone.—It has been already remarked Fig. Fig. 21. that crystallized albuminoids exist in plants. This was first observed by Hartig {Entwickelungsgeschichte des.
