No Need To Dry - Environmental Scanning Electron Microscopy Of Hydrated System
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 17 March 2011
Abstract
The environmental scanning electron microscope (ESEM) offers a new approach for the examination of biological samples at rather high resolution. It permits samples to be imaged without extensive specimen preparation, and specifically requires neither drying nor coating. This implies that organic samples can be looked at in their native state, without the danger of artefacts being introduced. A few specific examples both of static imaging, and also images obtained during dynamic mechanical testing are given in this article to illustrate the power of the technique.
