The BioEM facility offers a range of different methods for imaging biological structures, from tissues, and cells to single molecules.
Techniques offered by the BioEM facility
Transmission Electron Microscopy
This technique can be used to image the ultrastructure of cells and tissues at nanometer resolution.
Scanning Electron Microscopy
This method can be used to analyse the surface of structures.
3view Serial Block Face Imaging
Block face imaging is a fast and convenient technique used to obtain high resolution 3D images from a sample
