"Immunoelectron microscopy" defines a group of techniques developed for visualizing where components of cells or tissues are localized, by means of a transmission electron microscope (TEM) at a subcellular resolution. The method is based on antigen recognition by primary antibodies and subsequent visualization of recognized structures by means of electron-opaque gold granules, which are easily visible in TEM images. The potentially high resolution of this method relies on the very small size of the colloidal gold label, which consists of granules ranging from 1 to 60 nm in diameter, mostly used in the 5-15 nm sizes.

Abstract
"Immunoelectron microscopy" defines a group of techniques developed for visualizing where components of cells or tissues are localized, by means of a transmission electron microscope (TEM) at a subcellular resolution. The method is based on antigen recognition by primary antibodies and subsequent visualization of recognized structures by means of electron-opaque gold granules, which are easily visible in TEM images. The potentially high resolution of this method relies on the very small size of the colloidal gold label, which consists of granules ranging from 1 to 60 nm in diameter, mostly used in the 5-15 nm sizes.File in questo prodotto:
