Light micrography of pennate diatoms, which are able to move in a slow gliding fashion in the direction of the length of the cell. The mechanism for this is still not well understood but it seems that through the slit alongside the cell (the raphe) tiny microfibrils protrude. With these they can move over a surface. Olympus BH-2 microscope, 10X S-Plan phase contrast objective, x3.3 NFK photoeyepiece, Sony PMW-EX3 Full HD video camera. Horizontal field of view 500 microns. | |
