Microtubule cytoskeleton distribution using fluorescent taxoid in Tetratrichomonas didelphidis
Tetratrichomonas didelphidis is a flagellated protozoan found in the intestine of opossums. The specimens were stained by the Giemsa method and by FLUTAX-2, an active fluorescent derivative of Taxol which binds to the ab-tubulin polimerized of microtubules of cells. Giemsa stain revealed the morphol...
