Electron crystallography is used to study membrane proteins in the form of planar, two-dimensional (2D) crystals, or other crystalline arrays such as tubular crystals. This method has been used to determine the atomic resolution structures of bacteriorhodo ...
Cryo-electron microscopy is a form of transmission electron microscopy that has been used to determine the 3D structure of biological specimens in the hydrated state and with high resolution. We report the development of 4D cryo-electron microscopy by inte ...
The effects of 107 MeV Kr-84(17+) ion irradiation on YBa2Cu3O7-x-based second-generation coated conductors were investigated using a combination of transmission electron microscopy, diffraction and X-ray energy dispersive spectrometry. Defects 3-5 nm in di ...
The stochastic nature of biological systems makes the study of individual cells a necessity in systems biology. Yet, handling and disruption of single cells and the analysis of the relatively low concentrations of their protein components still challenges ...
Modern methods of cryo electron microscopy and tomography allow visualization of protein nanomachines in their native state at the nanometer scale. Image processing methods including sub-volume averaging applied to repeating macromolecular elements within ...
Graphene represents the first practical realization of crystalline supports in biological transmission electron microscopy (TEM) since their introduction over 30 years ago. The high transparency, minimal inelastic cross-section, and electrical conductivity ...
With different mass ratios, titanium dioxide/carbon nanotube (0.1-10 wt% CNTcontent) nanocomposites were prepared with the aid of ultrasonication method. The structures of the various TiO2/CNT nanocomposites were characterized by electron microscopy (scann ...
Variations of Vickers hardness were observed in Al-Mg-Mn alloy and Al-Mg-Mn-Sc-Zr alloy at different ageing times, ranging from a peak value of 81.2 HV at 54 ks down to 67.4 HV at 360 ks, below the initial hardness value, 71.8 HV at 0 ks for the case of Al ...
There is a continuous demand for imaging probes offering excellent performance in various microscopy techniques for comprehensive investigations. of cellular processes by more than, one technique. FluoreScent nanodianiond gold nanoparticles (END Au) consti ...
