[Presence of lipofuscin masses in the myocardium of Torpedo m].
Using histochemical and fluorescence microscope techniques (400-470 nm) lipofuscin masses have been found in the myocardium od Torpedo m., thereby confirming that the senescence pigment is a debris material. Future studies will better characterise the ultrastructure and the biochemical composition of these masses.
