Two hallmarks of rabies virus infection are seen there is minimal damage seen to the structure of infected neurons even though the extent of the infection is dramatic, and large numbers of bullet-shaped virions accumulate as a result of budding upon the endoplasmic reticulum membranes of these cells.
In this micrograph virions are seen budding into membrane vesicles (Golgi vesicles) in the cytoplasm of a liver cell (hepatocyte) of an infected rat.
Micrographs must be submitted as an 8 inch by 10 inch foil and must be accompanied by a completed entry sheet.
Electron and ion micrographs must be fl and white.
The micrograph is taken from a cross-section of a multiplayer structure of two amorphous polymers, poly-methylmethacrylate (PMMA) and polystyrene (PS).
