In chickens kidney-cell culture gametogony of E. tenella usually occurs in a limited number of selected cells in the form of nests of gametocytes. Some cells contain only macrogametocytes, others only microgametocytes and some cells contain both sexes together. Mixed nests of gametocytes are evidence for genetic sex determination. By using PAS staining the origin of macrogametocytes and microgametocytes can be retraced to the merozoites and schizonts of the last generation, which are differentiated by this technique.

Two novel methods for the determination of biomaterial cytotoxicity using cell culture are presented. The methods combine a standardized protocol for producing extracts from medical devices with either the established MTT assay or a new fluorimetric assay. The suitability of both methods for evaluating the toxicity of candidate materials was demonstrated by resolution of the differences in the toxic effects of serial dilutions of a PVC extract on BHK21 and HT1080 cells. The tests yield highly reproducible, quantitative results and can be applied to materials in the usual physical forms applicable to artificial organs.
