ASSOCIATION OF CALCIUM WITH MEMBRANES OF SQUID GIANT AXON : Ultrastructure and Microprobe Analysis

Giant axons from the squid, Loligo pealei, were fixed in glutaraldehyde and postfixed in osmium tetroxide. Calcium chloride (5 mM/liter) was added to all aqueous solutions used for tissue processing.
