title: Contribution of immunogold labelling to study of the outer membrane of gram-negative bacteria.
abstract: The immunogold labelling technique is beginning to make a significant contribution to the study of several biological systems. In the case of Gram-negative bacteria, immunogold labelling performed either on whole cells or on thin sections has recently begun to facilitate the study of outer membrane biogenesis, the topology of membrane proteins, and protein export.
