Abstract
DURING the course of an investigation on the mitotic activity of the mouse parathyroid gland at different ages1, using the colchicine technique, very marked alterations in the morphology of the Golgi bodies were observed in material prepared by the Nassonov-Kolachev method. Since the initial observations were made on immature animals, the glands of adult colchicine-injected mice were also investigated.
