Summary
The nuclear membrane ofAmoeba proteus appears in electron microscopical preparations to be composed of two layers, one porous containing pores of about 1200 Å diameter, the other one representing a continuous membrane of densely packed very small globular particles. The layer containing the pores is in contrast to the continuous layer very resistant to mechanical actions and to different fixing fluids and seems to contain rather few lipoids. The materials from the inner regions of the nucleus are difficult to fragment. Small fragments show filamentous reticula with small globular bodies.
