Hemifusomes are fused vesicles, or sacs of fluid, that were previously unknown to exist inside cells. They were discovered ...

Even after decades of research, biologists are still uncovering surprises about the human body. A team of researchers from ...

The researchers used cryo-electron tomography (cryo-ET) techniques to create 3D maps of tissues in a postmortem Alzheimer’s disease donor brain. They revealed the molecular structure of tau in brain ...

Scientists say they captured 3D images of a new organelle they're calling a "hemifusome," which may be a recycling center in ...

In a twist, researchers at the University of Virginia and the National Institutes of Health uncovered a new organelle, dubbed ...

Cellular cryo-electron tomography is a high-resolution technique that enables imaging of the molecular machinery of a cell at close-to-native conditions. With the advent of dedicated cryo-FIB ...

Cryo-electron tomography is an imaging technique that takes 2D images of cryogenically frozen samples at multiple tilt angles to reconstruct three-dimensional volumes of biological samples.

Resolution for cryo-electron tomography is in the 4-30 Å range. Conventional TEM service: negative staining,ultramicrotomy,immunocytochemistry. Consultation and Training: Consultation will cover the ...
