Electron Microscopy of Fowl Pox Virus

Examination of Lung Parenchyma by Electron Microscopy

In this paper many of the principal struc­ture of the Moral Lung were studied with the help of Electron Microscopy. Detailed descrip­tion was given of Granular Pneumocytes, Membranous Pneumocytes, Macrophages, and Alveolar Capillaries. A discussion followed on the form and function of Granular Pneumo­cytes.  Acknowledgements  I am grateful to the Reza Shah Pahlavi Foundation for its generou...

Biotinylation of bacterial lipopolysaccharide and its applications to electron microscopy.

We describe a procedure for lipopolysaccharide (LPS) biotinylation using N-biotinyl-L-lysine and application of the biotinylated LPS (Bi-LPS) to localization of LPS binding sites and subcellular distribution. Biotinylation of LPS was confirmed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), gel immunodiffusion, and immunodot techniques. The biological and toxicological activity of the Bi-LPS was ...

Applications of Electron Microscopy in Medicine

Applications of electron microscopy, stand-alone and in combination with other microscopy methods, in diverse fields of biological and medical research as well as in medical diagnosis will be one of the main topics at the Microscopy Conference (MC 2007), to be held from 2 to 7 September 2007 at the Saarland University in Saarbrücken (Germany). This is the 33rd Conference of the Deutsche Gesells...

Isolation of Herpetosiphon giganteus and Ultrastructure Analysis by Electron Microscopy

Herpetosiphon giganteus is a filamentous gliding bacterium. Gliding motility is the movement of the cells over surfaces without the aid of flagella. The mechanism responsible for bacterial gliding motility has not been known and there are only a few data on Herpetosiphon giganteus. The aim of this study was to observe the ultrastructure and negative staining of isolated strains of Herpetosiphon...
