Liquid cell electron microscopy has emerged as a transformative method that enables the in situ imaging of dynamic processes within liquid environments. This technique overcomes the traditional ...

Researchers at Graz University of Technology found that ordinary espresso can replace toxic uranyl acetate for electron ...

A new mouse study suggests that "beige" fat surrounding blood vessels can send calming signals to the arteries—revealing an ...

Microscopy continues to transform the life sciences. Here are five recent breakthroughs made possible by the technique.

Advanced light microscopy techniques are giving scientists a new understanding of human biology and what goes wrong in diseases Katarina Zimmer, Knowable Magazine Innovative techniques are helping ...

Researchers have developed a new technique to view living mammalian cells. The team used a powerful laser, called a soft X-ray free electron laser, to emit ultrafast pulses of illumination at the ...

As scientists question the rise in early colon cancer cases, a new study is offering some potential answers. Colored scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of a macrophage white blood cell (center) that ...

TEM works by accelerating electrons, typically with energies between 80 and 300 kV, and directing them through a specimen thin enough for electron transmission. Because of their very short wavelength ...
