The influence of tissue handling before fixation on the morphology of the chick blastoderm.
The morphology of cells and tissues of chick blastoderms handled before fixation in different ways, was compared. Blastoderms were fixed in ovo or after mounting on a glass ring (New, 1955). Differences in the morphology were observed.
