Summary

CHANGES IN THE MORPHOLOGY OF ARK SHELL, ANADARA BROUGHTONII (SHRENK) FOOT MUSCLE OCCURRING DURING 3 MONTH STORAGE AT 263 AND 233 K (-10 AND -40 DEG C) WERE EXAMINED BY ELECTRON MICROSCOPY. IT WAS OBSERVED THAT THICK FILAMENTS WERE ORIENTATED RANDOMLY AND WAVY WITHIN THE MUSCLE FIBERS. IN THE THAWED MUSCLE TISSUE, ESPECIALLY STORED AT 263 K FOR 3 MONTHS, EMPTY SPACES WERE OBSERVED IN AND OUTSIDE THE MUSCLE FIBERS. THE THICK FILAMENTS BECAME MORE COMPACT AND THEY SEEMED TO BE AGGREGATED TO SOME EXTENT.
