Abstract
Macrofibrils of wool fibers are prepared by ultrasonication of cortical cells in formic acid and are separated from other particles by differences between their rates of settling in a column of ethanol. The macrofibrils are observed by light microscopy and scanning electron microscopy to be about 10 μm long and 0.3 μm diameter and are made up of finer, fibrous filaments. The amino acid analysis of macrofibrils is essentially the same as that of cortical cells, which have been subjected to a similar ultrasonication treatment.
