Fig. 3. Control experiments on sections of a ventral photophore from the
hatchetfish, Argyropelecus hemigymnus. Preabsorption using antigen
(block peptide, Table 1) and
the antibody nNOS sc1025 (A and B) resulted in quenching of the immunoreaction
both in the filter cells (compare A and C) and among the photocytes (compare B
and D). f, filter cell area; p, photocytes; r, reflector. Bars, 50 µm.
