Biomedical optical techniques for intracochlear cellular imaging

Marilisa Romito

Imaging the inner ear microanatomy is of great importance for the assessment of the state of the cells responsible for sound detection. Hearing disorders are mainly due to a malfunction of the cochlea, the bone containing the cells inside the inner ear. Un ...

Waveguide platform and methods for super-resolution fluorescence microscopy of sub-cellular structures

Anna Archetti

Super-resolution fluorescence microscopy is widespread, owing to its demonstrated ability to resolve dynamical processes within cells and to identify the structure and position of specific proteins in the interior of protein complexes. Nowadays, subcellula ...

Block Face Scanning Electron Microscopy of Fluorescently Labeled Axons Without Using Near Infra-Red Branding

Graham Knott, Catherine Maclachlan

In this article, we describe the method that allows fluorescently tagged structures such as axons to be targeted for electron microscopy (EM) analysis without the need to convert their labels into electron dense stains, introduce any fiducial marks, or ima ...

Semiautomated correlative 3D electron microscopy of in vivo-imaged axons and dendrites

Marco Cantoni, Graham Knott, Bohumil Maco

This protocol describes how in vivo-imaged dendrites and axons in adult mouse brains can subsequently be prepared and imaged with focused ion beam scanning electron microscopy (FIBSESEM). The procedure starts after in vivo imaging with chemical fixation, f ...
