Fig. 2 in Identification of a new Sarcocystis sp. in marsh deer (Blastocerus dichotomus) from wetlands of Argentina

Fig. 2. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) image of the cyst wall from a microscopical sarcocyst in a marsh deer muscle (17-12CDP). Note the primary cyst wall (Pcw) from which arise bent ribbon-like protrusions folded over the cyst surface. The ground substance layer (gs) showed no granules nor microtubules. Electron lucid amylopectin granules (am) appear irregularly distributed within vacuolated bradyzoites (vb). Both, bradyzoites and host muscle cell are decomposed.
