Fine structural characterization of microbodies and Woronin bodies in Trichophyton mentagrophytes.
Microbodies and Woronin bodies, organelles surrounded by a single unit membrane, were identified in the hyphal cells of Trichophyton mentagrophytes by employing a fixative containing TAPO. The fine structure of the organelles is described and their possible significance discussed.
