Abstract

An attempt was made to estimate the quality of cryofixation by thermogram method--time relationship of object temperature during freezing and heating of the specimen while preparing it for the electron microscopic studies. The experiments carried out showed the necessity of estimating cryofixation quality to rule out artefacts appearing due to solvent crystallization.
