Electron microscopy is a powerful technique that provides high-resolution images by focusing a beam of electrons to reveal fine structural details in biological and material specimens. 2 Because ...

Researchers developed a method to enhance 3D imaging of lithium-ion battery electrodes, improving visualization of internal ...

What is Cryo-Electron Microscopy? Cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) is a powerful technique used to determine the three-dimensional structure of biological macromolecules, such as proteins and ...

Cryo-electron microscopy has exposed the structure of a bacterial virus with unprecedented detail. This is the first structure of a virus able to infect Staphylococcus epidermidis, and high-resolution ...

Traditional electron microscopy techniques include scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM), where electrons that interact with the sample are imaged. 4 The ...

Scientists at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory made a big leap in their research into all things small. Within the past few months, scientists there began using what they say is the world’s most ...

Electron microscopes have become a common sight in many university departments thanks to their high versatility and utility in bringing the nano-world to life. With spatial resolution and analytical ...

A new way of imaging frozen biological samples using electron microscopy is providing new glimpses into the nanoscopic world of cells. Images reveal bent in-vitro tubulin microtubules next to and in a ...

TEM works by accelerating electrons, typically with energies between 80 and 300 kV, and directing them through a specimen thin enough for electron transmission. Because of their very short wavelength ...

Breakthroughs, discoveries, and DIY tips sent six days a week. Terms of Service and Privacy Policy. Electron microscopy has existed for nearly a century, but a record ...

Bacteriophages or “phages” is the terms used for viruses that infect bacteria. The UAB researchers, led by Terje Dokland, Ph.D., in collaboration with Asma Hatoum-Aslan, Ph.D., at the University of ...
