Surface Liquid

The average thickness and distribution of airway surface liquid (ASL) on the luminal surface of peripheral airways were measured in normal guinea pig lungs frozen at functional residual capacity (FRC) and total lung capacity (TLC). Tissue blocks containing cross sections of airways of internal perimeter 0.188–3.342 mm were cut from frozen lungs and imaged by low-temperature scanning electron microscopy (LTSEM). Measurements made from LTSEM images were found to be independent of freezing rate by comparison of measurements at rapid and slow freezing rates. At both lung volumes, the ASL was not uniformly distributed in either the circumferential or longitudinal direction; there were regions of ASL where its thickness was < 0.1 micron, whereas in other regions ASL collected in pools. Discernible liquid on the surfaces of airways frozen at FRC followed the contours of epithelial cells and collected in pockets formed by neighboring cells, a geometry consistent with a low value of surface tension at the air-liquid interface. At TLC airway liquid collected to cover epithelial cells and to form a liquid meniscus, a geometry consistent with a higher value of surface tension. The average ASL thickness (h) was approximately proportional to the square root of airway internal perimeter, regardless of lung volume. For airways of internal perimeter 250 and 1,800 microns, h was 0.9 and 1.8 microns at FRC and 1.7 and 3.7 microns at TLC, respectively. For a given airway internal perimeter, h was 1.99 times thicker at TLC than at FRC; the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.01; 95% confidence interval 1.29–3.08).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Zonal Rotor

A method is described for the preparation of catalase particles from homogenates made from suspensions of epithelial cells of the small intestine of the guinea pig. Electron microscope examination of the preparations revealed the presence of small diaminobenzidine-positive particles measuring 0.1–0.3 nm in diameter and resembling the microperoxisomes observed by Novikoff and Novikoff (1972. J. Cell Biol. 53:532.). Analytical data upon which the method is based are presented. The technique consisted of a rate zonal separation of microperoxisomes from large particles followed by an isopycnic separation from less dense organelles. Application of the method yielded microperoxisomes purified between 20- and 30-fold.
