电子显微镜的基本构造
*EM structure:EM consist largely of
(1) A cylindrical column
(a) Cathode,tungsten wire filament,a source of
electron
(b) Electromagnet lens,1000-250,000 X magnification
(c) Screen,photographic plate,or film
(2) Vacuum system
(3) Electronically control console
prowerful suppler 104-105V
The formation of an image in the TEM depends on the
differential scattering of electron by parts of the specimen,
The later is proportional to the amount of matter present in
that part,that is its mass thickness,which is a measure of
the number of atoms per unit area and their atomic density.

* Specimen preparation for TEM
Standard method:
Fixation,Glutaraldehyde ( proteins cross-linking),osmium
tetroxide (lipid),Dehydration (in alcohol) and
embedding within epoxy plastic called Epon
Section,0.02-0.1μ m,cut by glass or diamond
Section mounting on grids and stain by electron
dyes,which provide the mass thickness required to scatter
the electron beam,uranyl acetate and lead citrate,or be
treated with metal-tagged antibody ect,Or a number of
cytochemical procedures to detect some enzymes as acid
phosphatase.

*Special techniques:
N Negative staining,for very small particulate materials,
which collects little stain,( uranyl acetate,potassium
phosphotungatate)
Shadow casting,to evaporate heavy metal and deposit
a metallic coat over the accessible surfaces of specimen,Heated
filament is composed of platinum together with carbon
,
Fr Freeze-fracture replication and Freeze etching,
rapidly freeze specimen at –150oC without fixative,
Freeze-fracture replication ( shadow a casting heavy-
metal layer and then a carbon layer is deposited on the fracture
surface,then the Freeze etching ( a layer of ice can evaporate from
the surface) and rapid-freeaing,deep-etching(-269 oC)specimen is
removed)

2) Scanning Electron microscopy (SEMs)
The means to examine in great clarity and detail the
surfaces of objects ranging in size from a virus to an
animal head keeping surface properties as the living state,
It is very important to display the outer cell surface and
various processes,extensions and extracellular materials
that are involved in the interaction of cell—its
environment.
P504
Specimen preparation for SEM.
A key procedure,critical-point drying using liquid CO2 —
dehydrate.
Dehydrated specimen is coated a layer of carbon and then metal
( gold or gold-palladium)
Image formation,in the SEM,the image is formated by the
electrons that are reflected back from the specimen (back-scattered)
or by secondary electrons given off by the specimen after being
struck by the primaty electron beam scanning the specimen,These
electrons strike a detector near the surface of specimen and are
scanning in the cathode-ray tube (as a TV screen),The result is an
image that reflects the surface topology of the specimen,because it
is this topology ( the crevices,hills and pits) that determines the
number of electrons collected from the various parts of the surface.
The most remarkable properties of the SEM,great range of
magnification,tremendous depth of focus (~500x deeper than that
of Light Microscopy) resulting their 3D image,The resolution is ~6
nm.

X ray micro-zone analysis
