Abstract
W. A. Stotler demonstrated at the sixtieth annual meeting of the American Association of Anatomists osmophilic granules in chromatolytic nerve cells; an account of this has been published1. This interesting finding is in agreement with our observations during the past few years2, that when using the Marchi reaction for degenerated fibres not only the degenerating myelin can be shown by the Swank–Davenport method, but also fine black granules in certain nerve cells.
