Three dimensional electron microscopy of cellular organelles by serial block face SEM and ET
Novel serial imaging methods using scanning electron microscopy may be used for 3D morphological studies of plastic embedded biological specimens. Serial block face SEM has already proven an undisputable position in 3D-EM studies of tissues, but it has a lot of potential in cell biology applications too. Electron tomography can be used to complement those studies where higher resolution is need...
متن کاملConductive resins improve charging and resolution of acquired images in electron microscopic volume imaging
Recent advances in serial block-face imaging using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) have enabled the rapid and efficient acquisition of 3-dimensional (3D) ultrastructural information from a large volume of biological specimens including brain tissues. However, volume imaging under SEM is often hampered by sample charging, and typically requires specific sample preparation to reduce charging a...
متن کاملFluorescence and SEM correlative microscopy for nanomanipulation of subcellular structures
Nanomanipulation under scanning electron microscopy (SEM) enables direct interactions of a tool with a sample. We recently developed a nanomanipulation technique for the extraction and identification of DNA contained within sub-nuclear locations of a single cell nucleus. In nanomanipulation of sub-cellular structures, a key step is to identify targets of interest through correlating fluorescenc...
متن کامل3-D EM exploration of the hepatic microarchitecture – lessons learned from large-volume in situ serial sectioning
To-date serial block-face scanning electron microscopy (SBF-SEM) dominates as the premier technique for generating three-dimensional (3-D) data of resin-embedded biological samples at an unprecedented depth volume. Given the infancy of the technique, limited literature is currently available regarding the applicability of SBF-SEM for the ultrastructural investigation of tissues. Herein, we prov...
متن کاملStaining and embedding of human chromosomes for 3-d serial block-face scanning electron microscopy.
The high-order structure of human chromosomes is an important biological question that is still under investigation. Studies have been done on imaging human mitotic chromosomes using mostly 2-D microscopy methods. To image micron-sized human chromosomes in 3-D, we developed a procedure for preparing samples for serial block-face scanning electron microscopy (SBFSEM). Polyamine chromosomes are f...
