A cross section near the proximal end of the cilium. Triangular densities link the doublets to the membrane. Bar = 0.2µm. TEM taken 7/23/65 by R. Allen with RCA EMU3F operating at 50kV. Adapted with permission. The negative was printed to paper and the image was scanned to Photoshop. This digitized image is available for qualitative analysis. An unprocessed, high resolution version of this image (CIL:34604) is in the library and available for quantitative analysis. Additional information available at (http://www5.pbrc.hawaii.edu/allen/).
