Summary
A study of the volumes of muscle-cell-nuclei during different stages of the chicken development was made, showing in a graph a marked increase of volumes corresponding to the time of fibrillar development. This increase according to Benninghoff's results (1950) is interpreted as functional oedema of nuclei. There is a decrease of volumes after development-stage 23 (Hamburger and Hamilton, 1951).
Zusammenfassung
Die Kernvolumina verschiedener Stadien der Skeletmuskulatur wurden ermittelt und graphisch dargestellt. Eine starke Volumszunahme geht der Fibrillenbildung zeitlich parallel und wird als funktionelles Kernödem gedeutet. Nach Stadium 23 (Hamburger u. Hamilton, 1951) nehmen die Kernvolumina wieder langsam ab.
