Myelin Sheath, Frog Sciatic Nerve, EM


Electron micrograph of myelin-sheath segment from transverse section of a frogs sciatic nerve. The image is demonstrating a concentric array of dense intermediate layers. Magnification: 350,000x. The insert in the lower left corner is low-angle x-ray diffraction pattern of a rat sciatic nerve recorded with finean camera. This pattern features a fundamental period of 178A, with characteristic alteration of the intensities of the even and odd orders.
