title: [The ultrastructure of Blastocystis galli from chickens].
abstract: The ultrastructure stages of Blastocystis galli were studied in chicken's intestine and in laboratory cultures. There were found morphological structures: surface coat (cell from chickens' intestine showed a very thick surface coat); cell membrane--there were some small electron-opaque deepening "pockets" on the membrane; inner membrane; endoplasmic reticulum with attached ribosomes, which present in the cytoplasm; all cells contained numerous of small vacuoles and large glycogen inclusions in cytoplasm; mitochondria with tubular cristae; nucleus with granules condensed chromatin; central vacuole; Golgi complex was represented by number of plates grouped in a pite; the cyst-like forms were surrounded by multilayered wall.
