title: Immunofluorescence and electron microscopy of the attachment of Mycoplasma synoviae to chicken embryo fibroblasts.
abstract: The techniques of immunofluorescence and of transmission and scanning electron microscopy were used to demonstrate the attachment of Mycoplasma synoviae to chicken embryo fibroblasts. Although the organisms colonized the surface of many of the cells, there was marked variation in the number of organisms associated with individual cells.
