✦ Synopsis

The nature of the intramitochondrial bodies in bovine adrenocortical cells was investigated both light and electron microscopically, by applying enzymatic digestion on paraffin and epon sections. The result that these bodies were extracted completely either by pepsin or by trypsin strengthened the validity of the previous conclusion that their nature is proteinaceous.
