Morphology and cross-linkage of stereocilia in the guinea-pig labyrinth examined without the use of osmium as a fixative

Hair cells of the guinea-pig cochlea and vestibular system were prepared for electron-microscopic examination by fixing in glutaraldehyde without the use of osmium. An extensive array of cross-links was seen between the apical ends of the stereocilia, by both scanning and transmission electron micro...
