Red blood cell remains streamed out of a Carboniferous human femur
fossil Here is the labelled photo: http://www.wretch.cc/album/show.php?...834688088&p=72 The unlabelled photo is right next to the labelled one. Note: The other day I was looking under an optical microscope for fossilized red blood cells in a thin section cut from a Carboniferous human femur. Suddenly, I noticed a pool of red blood cell remains. Outside the pool, I found some more red blood cell remains. They seemed to be in a stream. I followed the stream upward and, to my surprise, found a broken blood vessel remains which originated from a Haversian canal. I think the red blood cells streamed out of the blood vessel when the thin section was cut from the Carboniferous fossil and ground. Afterwards, I realized this was nothing new, as Dr. Mary H. Schweitzer had discovered the same thing from a femur specimen of T. Rex. The difference is that my specimen came from a Carboniferous human femur. I believe many such cases will be found in my specimen, as many Haversian canals in the thin section are filled with red blood cell remains. I once asked the operator of SEM to look for RBC in the Haversian canal, but he gave me an unbelieving look and ended the search in a short time. |
