Whan phosphotunngstate(PleTA ) at pH 7.0 was used, particle lengh and width of PMV and PGMV-SM werr conside{\texttt{\char126}}ably affecrnd rasulting in variation, whereas PGMV-SN war la18 affected. When uranyl acotete (UA) and urrnyl formate (UF) ware ured, tho prrlicler of PGMV-SM and PMV were better preserved, in contrast to PGMV-SN which was unstable in both the uranyl stains. PGMV.SN was well presarved in ammonium molybdrte (AM) o f pHs 3.5 and 6.5 but was d;sruoted in OH 8.0. Although PMV could be stairled with AM of pH 3.6, particles ware poorly stained In wM ot pHs 6.6 and 8.0. Pertlcles ol PGMV-SM were poorly strined in AM of all the three pH valuer.} }
