title: [Intracellular localization of beryllium by analytical ion microscopy].
abstract: After injection in the rat of a soluble beryllium salt, the distribution of this element was studied at the subcellular level by analytical ion microscopy. Beryllium is concentrated inside the nuclei with a particular affinity for the nuclei of the proximal tubule cells of the kidney. The same tissue was studied by electron microscopy and abnormal intranuclear inclusions were observed in the same variety of cells.
