“…Previous investigations have demonstrated calcium in association with ameloblast cell membranes and various organelles, using potassium pyroantimonate cytochemistry (Eisenmann et al, 1979;Appleton and Morris, 1979;Reith and Boyde, 1985;Kogaya and Furuhashi, 1988). This technique has recognized limitations (Von Zglinicki and Punkt, 1986) but its value has been confirmed for investigating changes in cellular calcium distribution under properly controlled conditions (Suzuki and Sugi, 1989;Wick and Hepler, 1980). Experimental agents such as cobalt and colchicine have been administered to rats to determine if any ated calcium pyroantimonate deposits were markedly reduced.…”
