3D Structure of Bacterial Magnetite Crystals: STEM Tomography on Crystalline Materials
22 Jan 2015The increased demand for high-quality 3D information from electron tomography has rendered manual acquisition of complete tilt series data and subsequent laborious reconstruction and visualization processing unsuitable for today’s busy research labs. This application note demonstrates that Xplore3D™, the software package from FEI, now offers the complete solution for Tecnai™ microscopes, enabling a new level of accuracy, reliability and convenience in 3D tomography.

MicrobiologyMicrobiology is the study of microorganisms including protists, prokaryotes, fungi, and, often, viruses. Microorganisms are a useful research tool as genetic vectors and, in immunology, for antibiotic susceptibility testing, cellular biology and genetics. Microorganisms commonly grow readily in incubators with microbial culture media; this can contain chromogenic supplements to differentiate between cell lines. Estimate your culture’s density of microorganisms with colony counters, or screen and select colonies for desirable clones with automated colony pickers. Additionally, equipment is available to monitor environments for the presence of microbes and identify with microbial identification instruments.

Types of electron microscope include scanning electron microscopes (SEM), transmission electron microscopes (TEM), scanning transmission electron microscopes (STEM) and cryo-electron microscopes. Focused ion beam (FIB) microscopes are useful for modifying or milling a sample surface with nanometer precision, as well as imaging.
