Frontiers in Cytochemistry

Abstract

THE well-known jibe that the specialist is one who knows more and more about less and less may be taken in its complimentary sense by workers in many branches of science. Those who are endeavouring to determine the biochemical nature and enzymic composition of the microscopic, and sub-microscopic components of living cells belong to this category, and now they are at least beginning to show signs of penetrating some of the mysteries which beset the isolation and identification of anything so small and so sensitive as the protoplasmic particles and granules.
