Abstract

We found numerous small vesicles released from the cell by thin sectioning of the plate culture of Vibrio cholerae and V. parahaemolyticus fixed with the freeze-substitution technique. From the broth media of exponentially growing bacteria we could collect the vesicles by the centrifugation but not enough without fixation. The vesicles are encompassed with a membrane structure similar to the outer membrane of these bacteria. The anti-O (Inaba) serum reacted with the surface of the vesicles and the inside of the vesicle are generally filled with an electron-dense mass.
