From Bioblast
Bioblasts - the original bioenergetic term for mitochondria and bacteria
Richard Altmann (1894) coined the term Bioblasts to describe the 'elementary particles' observed by osmium staining in metazoan cells, endosymbiotic and free-living bacteria (Tafel VII 1 Pankreas der Maus VII 2 WurzelknΓΆllchen von Coronilla glauca). Five years ago the Bioblast website was launched, and the bioblasts were presented in the MiPArt exhibtion at the Mitochondrial Physiology Conference MiP2010.
