Blue-Green Algae: Fine Structure of the Gas Vacuoles
The gas vacuoles seen in several species of blue-green algae under the light microscope are shown by electron microscopy to correspond to packed arrays of cylindrical, electron-transparent vesicles.…

Heavy metal uptake by polyphosphate bodies in living and killed cells of Plectonema boryanum (cyanophycae).
TLDR
Results of the investigation show that PPB in living cells with active uptake systems take up and sequester more of the metals Zn, Pb, Mn and Al than killed cells.

A morphometric and x-ray energy dispersive approach to monitoring pH-altered cadmium toxicity inAnabaena flos-aquae
TLDR
It is suggested that these techniques can be successfully employed for bioassay studies of metal toxicity to algae, in particular, cell wall lysis and loss of lipids by algae are good indicators of pH effects and metal toxicity in the aquatic ecosystem.

Quantitative analysis of the elemental composition and the mass of bacterial polyphosphate bodies using STEM EDX.
TLDR
The results indicate that the PPB may have other unknown functions in addition to essential element storage, acting as a detoxification method by sequestering heavy metals and providing a homeostasis system in the cell.

Cytology of Blue-green Algae
TLDR
The fine structure of some sixty different collections of blue-green algae representing at least thirty different species was studied, and it is suggested that some of these inclusions are intracellular symbionts.

The fine structure of a microplate-microtubule array, microfilaments and polyhedral body associated microtubules in several species of Anabaena
TLDR
These structures are compared to previously deseribed microtubules and microfilament structures and observed associated with one facet of polyhedral bodies in Anabaena.
