Direct observation of t-butyl alcohol frozen and sublimated samples using low-vacuum scanning electron microscopy.
Frozen biological specimens in t-butyl alcohol were examined under a low-vacuum environment in a "wet SEM" or "variable pressure SEM (scanning electron microscope)" equipped with a cooling stage and highly sensitive backscattered detector of the YAG type. After fixation with glutaraldehyde and osmium tetroxide, rat tissue blocks (tracheae and kidneys), and cultured human carcinoma cells were de...
متن کاملScanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) analysis and biological control of Ixodes ricinus using entomopathogenic fungi
In the present study, pathogenicity of four native strains of Entomopathogenic fungus; Metarhizium anisopliae, was studied against adult stage of Ixodes ricinus. For this purpose a total number of 180 adult ticks were examined in triplicate. Thirty ticks for each strain and negative and positive controls were immersed in 2.4×107 fungal conidia/ml in vitro. Samples were incubated in separate Pet...
متن کاملHigh-Contrast Observation of Unstained Proteins and Viruses by Scanning Electron Microscopy
Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) is an important tool for the nanometre-scale analysis of the various samples. Imaging of biological specimens can be difficult for two reasons: (1) Samples must often be left unstained to observe detail of the biological structures; however, lack of staining significantly decreases image contrast. (2) Samples are prone to serious radiation damage from electron...
متن کاملDirect Observation of Wet Biological Samples by Graphene Liquid Cell Transmission Electron Microscopy.
Recent development of liquid phase transmission electron microscopy (TEM) enables the study of specimens in wet ambient conditions within a liquid cell; however, direct structural observation of biological samples in their native solution using TEM is challenging since low-mass biomaterials embedded in a thick liquid layer of the host cell demonstrate low contrast. Furthermore, the integrity of...
متن کاملDirect Observation of Ferroelectric Domains in LiTaO3 Using Environmental Scanning Electron Microscopy
Direct observation of ferroelectric domain structures in LiTaO3 crystal, without etching or surface coating, has been realized by using environmental scanning electron microscopy in secondary electron emission mode. The new method can nondestructively provide domain contrast image at submicron resolution, and the domain contrast image is very stable. Conditions for best domain contrast of LiTaO...
