Correlative imaging of a specific cell with both the light microscope and the electron microscope has proved to be a difficult task, requiring enormous amounts of patience and technical skill. We describe a technique with a high rate of success, which can be used to identify a particular cell in the light microscope and then to embed and thin-section it for electron microscopy. The technique also includes a method to obtain many uninterrupted, thin serial sections for imaging by conventional or energy-filtered transmission electron microscopy, to obtain images for 3D analysis of detail at the suborganelle level.
事实证明,利用光学显微镜和电子显微镜对特定细胞进行相关成像,是一项艰巨的任务,需要极大的耐心和专业技术。我们描述了一种成功率很高的技术,该技术可用于在光学显微镜下识别特定细胞,然后将其包埋并制成超薄切片用于电子显微镜观察。该技术还包括一种方法,可获得许多连续的超薄切片,用于传统或能量过滤透射电子显微镜成像,以获取亚细胞器水平细节的三维分析图像。
