Methods of Separating the Subcellular Components of Brain Tissue

  • Chapter
Glycolipids, Glycoproteins, and Mucopolysaccharides of the Nervous System

Part of the book series: Advances in Experimental Medicine and Biology ((AEMB,volume 25))

Abstract

It was in the early 1950s that the first great advances were made in our knowledge of the structure of the cell. This came about as a result of the development of the electron microscope and of the high-speed refrigerated centrifuge. The former gave an insight into the high degree of complexity of the components of the cell, and the latter made possible the separation of some of these components from each other and consequently the study of their metabolism and interaction.
