Scientists suggest increasing what is understood about exocytosis could one day inform many fields of applied science.

Researchers have used cryo-electron tomography to uncover new details of the molecular structure of synaptic vesicles, which help transport neurotransmitters in the brain. The study could inform ...

The image taken at the CFcryo-EM (Core Facility for cryo-Electron Microscopy) captures the moment during which a vesicle (arrow) fuses with the cell membrane. By superimposing several electron ...

Traditional electron microscopy techniques include scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM), where electrons that interact with the sample are imaged. 4 The ...

Electron microscopy is a powerful technique that provides high-resolution images by focusing a beam of electrons to reveal fine structural details in biological and material specimens. 2 Because ...

Support grids are a key part of electron microscopy measurements; the choice of the grid can directly influence the quality and accuracy of the final image. This is particularly true for transmission ...

Electron microscopy has become a vital tool in structural biology, enabling researchers to visualize biological macromolecules at near-atomic resolution. Recent advances have transformed it from a low ...

In this interview, AZoMaterials speaks with Professor Sarah Haigh, Professor of Materials Characterization at the University of Manchester, about her pioneering work in electron microscopy and its ...

Max Delbrück Center for Molecular Medicine in the Helmholtz Association Researchers led by Uljana Kravčenko and her colleagues in the lab of Professor Misha Kudryashev, Group Leader of the In Situ ...
