Figures 81 (upper) and 82 (lower) from Chapter 3 (Junctional Specializations) of 'The Cell, 2nd Ed.' by Don W. Fawcett M.D. Septate junctions (upper, rectum; lower, testis) in the cockroach Periplaneta americana appear as rows of 6-10nm particles on the P-face and shallow pits on the E-face of freeze fracture replicas. Images by Nancy Lane. A PDF copy of the accompanying chapter is available on the ASCB's BioEDUCATE website.
