Mario Hector Burgos Asborno, Argentine histologist and microscopist (Buenos Aires 21 June 1921 – Mendoza 22 September 2012)

His papers were milestones in the cell biology, reproduction and endocrinology of those times

With D.W. Fawcett authored the first studies about ultrastructure of Golgi complex and its role in spermatogenesis (1955)

With G. di Paola. Eosin test for the evaluation of sperm vitality. Obst. Gynec. Surv. 7(3):445, 1952
