Transmission electron microscopy reveals the architecture of cells at nanometer resolution, but chemical fixation severely warps their native structure. The true ultrastructure of cells can be ...
The N.C. Brown Center for Ultrastructure Studies in Baker Laboratory provides instruction and assistance in light microscopy methods, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, ...
Scientists have developed a new imaging technique that uses a novel contrast mechanism in bioimaging to merge the strengths ...
Researchers have developed a method for scientists to track a single blood stem cell in a live organism and then describe the ultrastructure, or architecture, of that same cell using electron ...
The aldehydes introduced in this paper and the more appropriate concentrations for their general use as fixatives are: 4 to 6.5 per cent glutaraldehyde, 4 per cent glyoxal, 12.5 per cent ...
With a so-called cryo plasma-FIB (Plasma Focused Ion Beam) scanning electron microscope with nanomanipulator, Goethe University in Frankfurt (Germany) is expanding its research infrastructure with a ...
In order to learn more about human physiology, researchers have to make visual observations. Seeing what's going on inside of cells presents many challenges that advances in microscopy have tried to ...
The kidneys are vital organs that sustain life by filtering the blood and producing urine. This filtration process takes ...
