Electron microscopy has evolved into a suite of sophisticated techniques essential for investigating the structure and properties of materials at the nanoscale and beyond. By utilising focused ...

Microscopy continues to transform the life sciences. Here are five recent breakthroughs made possible by the technique.

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 ...

Cryo-EM is referred to as a form of EM where a transmission electron microscope (TEM) is used to obtain the image of radiation-sensitive specimens under cryogenic conditions. The phrase cryo-EM is ...

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 ...

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. – Cryo-electron microscopy by University of Alabama at Birmingham researchers has exposed the structure of a bacterial virus with unprecedented detail. This is the first structure of ...

The copper target was operated at voltages of 11 kV, 12 kV, 13 kV, and 14 kV for the electron source, and a 50 kV configuration using a molybdenum target was used as a representative example for the ...

Researchers at TU Graz have proven that espresso is a favourable alternative to the highly toxic and radioactive uranyl ...

To ensure that the tissue structures of biological samples are easily recognizable under the electron microscope, they are treated with a staining agent. The standard staining agent for this is uranyl ...
