This paper discusses automatic Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) image registration, TEM slice assembly via tile mosaicking, and TEM volume assembly via slice to slice registration. Several algorithms are presented, including an algorithm for mosaic layout of an unordered set of tiles, an algorithm for distortion correction, and an image processing algorithm for a coarse edge and blob dete...

In this paper, 4,4ʹ-bipyridinium dichloride  supported SBA-15 (SBA@BiPy2+ 2Cl-) was used for the synthesis of dihydropyrimidinones. The synthesized catalyst was characterized by FT-IR spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). This nanocomposite was shown to be an efficient heterogeneous ca...

we report the direct soft chemical synthesis and characterization of a family of face centered cubic (fcc) and partially ordered face centered tetragonal (fct) fept nanoparticles (nps) suitable for biomedical applications. both fcc and partially ordered fct-fept nps are synthesized by employing a simple polyol method. by using polyvinyl pyrolidone (pvp) as a stabilizer in various ratios during ...

a new approach for the synthesis of prussian blue nanoparticles using the cationic surfactant cetyl pyridinium chloride (cpc) as capping agent has been developed in the present work. powder x-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, uv–vis absorption spectra, and ir spectroscopy were employed to characterize the product. the tem image showed that the prussian blue nanoparticles with d...

Two-dimensional PbSe nanocrystal arrays on silicon nitride membranes were investigated using electrostatic force microscopy (EFM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Changes in lattice and transport properties upon annealing in a vacuum were revealed. Local charge transport behavior was directly imaged by EFM and correlated to nanopatterns observed with TEM. Charge transport through nan...

The objective of the proposed study is to use ANSTO’s transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and elastic recoil detection analysis (ERDA) combined with Rutherford back scattering (RBS). TEM and its associated techniques like HR-TEM (High resolution) and electron energy loss spectroscopy (EELS) are proposed to determine the lattice fringes and electron diffraction pattern with d-spacing correspo...

Experiments were conducted to detect interferon-tau in bovine in vitro-derived blastocysts by transmission electron (TEM) and confocal microscopy. TEM showed the presence of IFN-tau in the cytoplasm and the nuclei of expanded blastocysts. Confocal microscopy similarly confirmed the presence of IFN-tau in the trophectoderm of blastocysts. The distribution of IFN-tau appeared variable with some c...

This work presents the ultrastructure of testis of the medically important blow fly, Chrysomya megacephala (Fabricius) (Diptera: Calliphoridae) using light microscopy and electron microscopy. Reproductive organ of males was dissected to determine the testis in the pupal stage, 3-day-old flies and 7-day-old flies and observed under scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron mic...

Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) is a powerful tool for the investigation of the microstructure of materials, providing crystallographic information and composition at the nanometer scale. For such studies, samples should be transparent to the electron beam. In this review, TEM sample preparation techniques for different classes of materials, such as metals and alloys, multilayered coatin...

purpose: to determine the dissection level during deep lamellar keratoplasty (dalk) using the big-bubble technique by light microscopy (lm) and transmission electron microscopy (tem). methods: descemet’s membrane (dm) and stromal tissue of 4 keratoconic eyes were removed because of inadvertent intraoperative dm perforation during dalk which was converted to penetrating keratoplasty. these speci...
