Abstract
THE neurokeratin network has long been regarded by histologists as a fixation artefact ; it is figured as such in papers and text-books. Sometimes it is shown as irregular bands radiating through the myelin sheath to the neurilemma, sometimes as a network particularly at the surface of the fibre or around the axon.
