Abstract:Physiologically viable and synchronously beating heart cells can be grown in varying geometric configurations for parallel biochemical, electrophysiological, ultrastructural and x-ray microanalytical studies. Our objective in these experiments was to develop a method by which heart cells grown to confluency either as a sheet, spherical aggregate or polystrand could be rapidly frozen prior to cryosectioning and electron probe x-ray microanalysis.A single-sided propane jet freezer, which has been shown to achiev… Show more
