Table 1 Quantification of the cell surface area and the cell height

From: Formation of the germ-disc in spider embryos by a condensation-like mechanism

 

Surface area (μm2) n = 3;25

Cell height (μm) n = 3;10

Stage 2 (embryonic cells)

2365 +/− 777

30.5 +/− 3

Stage 4 (embryonic cells)

604 +/− 144

26.1 +/− 2.7

Stage 4 (extra-embryonic cells)

10649 +/− 6828

32.9 +/− 8.9

  1. Fixed and phalloidin or FITC-WGA stained embryos have been used to measure the cell surface area and height in stage 2 and 4 embryos (n = number of analysed embryos; number of analysed cells)
