Interaction of mycoplasmas with cell cultures, as visualized by electron microscopy.

Mycoplasmas were examined on the surfaces of tissue culture cells prepared for transmission and scanning electron microscopy. The pleomorphic bodies seen were proved to be mycoplasmas by the use of thin sections, passage of the infection from one cell line to another, and by autoradiography with [(3)H]thymidine both on the sections and the replicas. The mycoplasmas were not always evenly distributed over the cell's surface; their arrangement seemed to correlate with the activity or morphology of the cell. The use of replicas and scanning electron microscopy in routine examination of cultures for mycoplasma contamination is discussed.
