Author Description

Excerpt from The American Journal of Anatomy, 1915, Vol. 17 I have received valuable help from my father in this work, for which I am very thankful. I have prepared the following summary so that what we know of the comparative distribution of mitochondria in vertebrate nerve cells may be seen at a glance. The evidence which these investigators have presented will now be considered. Guinea-pig Nageotte ('09 a, p. 472) demonstrated certain bacilli-like bodies in peripheral nerve fibers fixed in Tellyesniczky's bichromate acetic fluid and stained with Altmann's anilin fuchsin. He found them also after preliminary fixation in 10 per cent formalin followed by Tellyesniczky's fluid and staining in the same way.
