Abstract
The degenerative changes of the synaptic regions after nerve section have been studied with the electron microscope in the interneuronal synapse of the ventral ganglion of the acoustic nerve of the guinea pig. Fixation with buffered osmic tetroxide was carried out 22, 44, and 48 hours after destruction of the cochlea on one side; the contralateral ganglion being used as control.Keywords
