Researchers have developed a new X-ray nanotomography microscope. Using their new system, they can reveal the structures on the smallest components of mammalian cells in three dimensions. For the ...

Pars plana vitrectomy was performed in a 66-year-old man with progressive vitreomacular traction associated with a persistent hyaloid artery. Epimacular tissue was peeled and processed for ...

Male infertility is a major issue worldwide and its causes remain unclear. Now, an international team of researchers led by Hiroki Shibuya at the RIKEN Center for Biosystems Dynamics Research (BDR) in ...

The N.C. Brown Center for Ultrastructure Studies in Baker Laboratory provides instruction and assistance in light microscopy methods, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, ...

Researchers centered at Japan's National Institute for Physiological Sciences reveal details of the structure of compacted DNA transiently formed at the time of cell division in cyanobacteria.

International Journal of Plant Sciences, Vol. 166, No. 1 (January 2005), pp. 145-156 (12 pages) Based on sections from both macerated and unmacerated cuticles and, for the extant species, the leaf ...

University of California, Los Angeles Department of Materials Science and Engineering International Conference on Ultrastructure Processing of Ceramics, Glasses, and Composites (3rd : 1987 : San Diego ...

Eukaryotic cells, including human cells, form paired condensed chromosomes before cell division. The paired chromosomes are then equally divided into the daughter cells. Prokaryotic cells, including ...

Ultrastructure expansion microscopy of murine male germ cells reveals the fine molecular structures of centrioles (shown in the enlarged image). DNA is stained in blue, and the chromosome axis in red.
