FixationandEmbeddingofMicrotubulesforElectronMicroscopy

(This procedure can also be used for virtually any material that must be pelleted prior to fixation and thin sectioning)Primary fix:2% glutaraldehyde (from 25% or 10% stock) in microtubule assembly buffer.For better contrast of the tubulin, you can add 0.1-.5% tannic acid.Secondary Fix:0.5-1% OsO4 in the same buffer. OsO4 is kept in the refrigerator in a jar and is made as a 4% solution in water. It is very......阅读全文

Transmission-Electron-Microscope-(TEM)

所谓TEM,就是一个放大镜叠加了一台照相机。这台放大镜的放大倍数比较高,可高达一百万倍。当然,抛开分辨率谈放大倍数都是耍流氓,那么,TEM的分辨率有多高呢?答案是 it depends。一般来说,TEM的分辨率要在1到2个纳米,STEM更高,但是STEM得成像技术类似于SEM,但用的不是二次电子。我
