Researchers at Graz University of Technology found that ordinary espresso can replace toxic uranyl acetate for electron ...

To ensure that the tissue structures of biological samples are easily recognizable under the electron microscope, they are ...

Goethe University Frankfurt (Germany) ceremonially commissioned a state-of-the-art cryo plasma-FIB scanning electron microscope with nanomanipulator worth more than 5 million euros on Thursday. The ...

It’s a problem that few of us will ever face, but if you ever have to calibrate your scanning electron microscope, you’ll need a resolution target with a high contrast under an electron beam. This ...

Microscopy continues to transform the life sciences. Here are five recent breakthroughs made possible by the technique.

Researchers at the Institute of Electron Microscopy and Nanoanalysis (FELMI-ZFE) at Graz University of Technology (TU Graz) ...

In transmission electron microscopy (TEM), where the electron beam passes through the sample to be directly imaged on the detector below, it is often necessary to support the thin samples on a grid.

Researchers at TU Graz have proven that espresso is a favourable alternative to the highly toxic and radioactive uranyl acetate in the analysis of biological samples.

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 ...
