Fundamental Considerations and Experimental Conditions on the Study of the Spiral Direction of Helical Bacteria

To correlate changes of cell surface structure with the cell cycle phases, scanning electron microscopic observation was made on culture cell line of renal carcinoma of Syrian hamster (HKC-400) which was synchronized by double thymidine block. Cell surface morphology could be classified into three major categories depending on the cell cycle phases I.e. flattening with few excrescences in the S phase, many blebs and filaments in the M phase and active ruffling early G1. Further study is needed to characterize G2 and late-G1 cells. Functional significance was also discussed.
