The dynamics of exoskeletal—Epidermal structure during molt in juvenile lobster by electron microscopy and electron spectroscopic imaging
Abstract
The exoskeletal-epidermal complex of juvenile lobsters at various stages throughout the molt cycle was examined by conventional electron microscopy, freeze-etch replicas, and electron spectroscopic imaging. This latter technique which enables the direct localization of atomic elements superimposed over morphological fine structure has been applied to this tissue complex to determine the spatial distributions and interrelationships of calcium, …
