A rapid method for combined laser scanning confocal microscopic and electron microscopic visualization of biocytin or neurobiotin-labeled neurons.
Intracellular recording and dye filling are widely used to correlate the morphology of a neuron with its physiology. With laser scanning confocal microscopy, the complex shapes of labeled neurons in three dimensions can be reconstructed rapidly, but this requires fluorescent dyes. These dyes are neither permanent nor electron dense and therefore do not allow investigation by electron microscopy...
متن کاملScanning electron microscopic, transmission electron microscopic, and confocal laser scanning microscopic observation of fibroblasts cultured on microgrooved surfaces of bulk titanium substrata.
During this study, microtechnology and plasma etching were used to produce gratings 1.0 (TiD01), 2.0 (TiD02), 5.0 (TiD05), and 10.0 microns wide (TiD10) into commercially pure titanium wafers. After incubation of rat dermal fibroblast (RDFs) on these surfaces for 3 days, the cells were observed with scanning electron (SEM), transmission electron (TEM), and confocal laser scanning microscopy (CL...

متن کاملElectron microscopic visualization of receptor-mediated endocytosis of Dil-labeled lipoproteins by diaminobenzidine photoconversion.
We present a modified diaminobenzidine (DAB) photoconversion method that enables staining of internalized Dil-labeled lipoproteins without the apparent punctate background staining that was observed with the original DAB photoconversion method. This is illustrated by the localization of Dil-labeled insect lipoproteins in natural recipient cells that internalize these lipoproteins by receptor-me...
متن کاملTongue structure in the long-eared hedgehog (Hemiechinus auritus): A scanning electron microscopic study
The aim of this study was to investigate the dorsal surface of the long-eared hedgehog tongue using scanning electron microscopy. The tongue of the long-eared hedgehog is rectangular-shaped with an elongated body and a widened root and a marked deep median groove can be seen on its dorsal surface. A characteristic feature of the lingual root is presence of two huge laterally situated folds. The...
