The Mammalian Erythrocyte, H.J. Werner

Bachelors’ Theses

An investigation of bibliographies shows that the red corpuscles of the blood have been studied very extensively, in fact, wore so than any cell in the mammalian body. The study has progressed vigorously and from varied points of view.

Staining Techniques In The Study Of The Blood, Donald E. Winnik

Bachelors’ Theses

Since the invention of the microscope, the study of the blood and its constituents has been a major interests of histologists and hematologists. The vast amount of material written about the subject could not have been accomplished without the development and use of staining techniques which made possible a more precise observation of the nature of the blood. At the present time there are many procedures and stains which vary greatly in their application and use. It is the purpose of this thesis to review these many methods and catalogue them according to their application in the blood techniques.

A Comparative Study Of The Structure And Origin Of The Yolk Nucleus, John P. Munson

Biology Faculty Scholarship

The question as to the comparative structure and origin of the yolk nucleus involves several other problems:

1. Is the yolk nucleus a normal element of the egg cytoplasm, or is it associated with pathological states of the egg, or is it an artefact due to reagents?

2. Is there a necessary connection between one form and another such that one can be derived from the other?

3. Is it an amorphous chemical substance or does it possess anything suggesting permanence of structure?

4. Does it arise de novo or is it a modification of something similar existing in the …

Organization And Polarity Of Protoplasm, John P. Munson

All Faculty Scholarship for the College of the Sciences

In higher forms of life, we usually concede the presence of an organ specialized for the performance of a function. In these higher forms coordination of organs, which entails a regular sequence in their functions, is readily made out; and it seems a mere platitude to say, of these, that organization determines the functions of the organism. To what extent can functions exist in the absence of organization; does the one precede the other; or have function and organization developed simultaneously, out of matter devoid of both structure and function? In my studies on the cell, I have kept these …
