Fine structure of frozen-etched lipid granules in the fat body of an insect

T. P. Liu and D. M. Davies

Department of Biology, McMaster University, Hamilton, Canada

Lipid storage in fat-body cells of adult female black flies was examined using freeze-etching electron microscopy. Frozen-etched lipid granules exhibited a laminated structure. The molecular arrangement of the lipid granule may depend on the physiological condition of the insect and may be involved in the control of lipid metabolism in the fat-body cell.

Supplementary key words electron microscopy • concentric lipid lamellae • phospholipid • simuliid fly
