Methods of fixing, embedding and sectioning of Amoeba proteus for electron microscopy are described. The fine structure of the various organelles: nucleus, mitochondria, food vacuoles; and the contractile vacuole, is discussed in detail. A number of minor unidentified objects has also been found. The functional implications of the structural findings are considered.

First Time

The effects of panchromatic illumination at 0.8, 6.7, 122, 436, and 835 W/m2 on the contractile vacuole of Amoeba proteus were measured. At a level as low as 122 W/m2, a gradual deterioration of vacuolar performance is noted: extended cycles, slow or partial systole, plateaux, inhibition of coalescence, etc. Pseudosystole, observed for the first time, supports our hypothesis that osmotic losses oppose vacuolar growth.
