Mitochondria form continuous intracellular network-structures visualized with high-resolution field-emission scanning electron microscopy / T. Naguro, H. Nakane and S. Inaga -- 5. Is the scanning mode the future of electron microscopy in cell b "Recent developments in scanning electron microscopy (SEM) have resulted in a wealth of new applications for cell and molecular biology, as well as related biological disciplines. It is now possible to analyze macromolecular complexes within their three-dimensional cellular microenvironment in near native states at high resolution, and to identify specific molecules and their structural and molecular interactions. New approaches include cryo-SEM applications and environmental SEM (ESEM), staining techniques and processing applications combining embedding and resin-extraction for imaging with |
