X-ray microanalysis of electron-dense bodies in Cladosporium resinae

X-ray microanalysis attachment for electron microscope.

Fatty Acid Composition of Cladosporium resinae

Cladospofium resinae was grown in submerged cultures on glucose; on Jet-A commercial aviation fuel; and on a series of n-alkanes, n-decane through n-tetradecane. Cell yield was greatest on glucose and least on Jet-A; n-alkanes were intermediate. Among n-alkanes cell yield decreased as chain length increased, except for n-dodecane, which supported less growth than n-tridecane or n-tetradecane. T...

Characterization of atmospheric particles by electron probe X-ray microanalysis.

Microchemical glass standards were used to validate a quantitation method based on peak-to-background (P/B) ratios from electron probe x-ray microanalysis spectra. This standardless method was applied to the determination of concentrations of individual particles from Malpha or Lalpha lines, as well as from Kalpha lines. The algorithm was tested on particulate glass samples for diameters rangin...

Electron probe microanalysis of the dense bodies of human blood platelets.

Under the electron microscope various substructures were observable in the attenuated cytoplasm of platelets without any treatment, i.e., fixation, embedding or staining. The granulomere of platelets revealed dense bodies of 200-300nm diameter and smaller dense granules (about 50nm). Larger ovoid bodies with dense granules presumably corresponded to mitochondria and lysosomes. In the hyalomere ...
