The efficiency of the light microscope with that of the electron microscope in detecting asbestos fibres in human lung tissue was computed. Necropsy material from 55 patients who had died from asbestos related diseases was analysed independently by phase contrast microscopy and electron microscopy. As expected the number of fibres identified using electron microscopy was higher than that identi...

The morphology of red cells damaged by 2-aminoethylisothiouronium bromide (AET) has been compared to that of PNH cells by transmission and scanning electron microscopy. The main features of the effect of AET as demonstrated by the scanning electron microscope were spherical and deformed cells, with surface craters and relatively large pits. The transmission electron microscope revealed loss of ...

in this study, hydroxyapatite (ha) nanocrystals have been synthesized via chemical precipitation technique. diammonium hydrogen phosphate and calcium nitrate 4-hydrate were used as starting materials and sodium hydroxide solution was used as the agent for ph adjustment. the powder sample was evaluated by techniques such as scanning electron microscope, transmission electron microscope, fourier ...

In the previous experiments (Takeya et al., 1959b) the interactions of Mycobacterium avium with mycobacteriophage B-1 were studied by cyttilogical techniques, and the latent period of the B-1 phage infecting the host cell was determined under the conditions used in the preparation for electron microscopy. The present paper deals with the results of experiments on the interactions of mycobacteri...
