 en Low impact to fixed cell processing aiming transmission electron microscopy
Barth, Ortrud Monika; Nunes da Silva, Marcos Alexandre & Barreto-Vieira, Debora Ferreira

Abstract

In cell culture, cell structures suffer strong impact due to centrifugation during processing for electron microscope observation. In order to minimise this effect, a new protocol was successfully developed. Using conventional reagents and equipments, it took over one week, but cell compression was reduced to none or the lowest deformation possible.
