The Preparation of Frozen-dried Tissue for Electron Microscopy
نویسنده
چکیده
A method is described for the preparation of liver by freezing and drying which avoids the formation of ice crystals visible with the electron microscope. Such dried preparations after postfixation may be stained with numerous reagents. They may also be stained for cytochemical study of ribonucleic and desoxyribonucleic acids, and for glycogen. Details of the methods are given, together with a brief justification of them through a summary of the controls employed. Further details, as well as a description of the submicroscopic morphology following the use of the methods, will be described elsewhere.

متن کاملBackscattered electron imaging of cultured cells: application to electron probe X-ray microanalysis using a scanning electron microscope.
We report a simple method to study the elemental content in cultured human adherent cells by electron probe X-ray microanalysis with scanning electron microscopy. Cells were adapted to grow on polycarbonate tissue culture cell inserts, washed with distilled water, plunge-frozen with liquid nitrogen and freeze-dried. Unstained, freeze-dried cultured cells were visualized in the secondary and bac...
