Ehlers–Danlos syndromes (EDS) are inherited conditions that affect the body's connective tissue, which provides strength and ...

WALTHAM, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Thermo Fisher Scientific, the world leader in serving science, has introduced the Thermo Scientific™ Krios™ 5 Cryo-TEM. This next-generation, atomic-resolution ...

To ensure that the tissue structures of biological samples are easily recognizable under the electron microscope, they are treated with a staining agent. The standard staining agent for this is uranyl ...

When looking through a microscope, the level of detail that is visible isn't just about how much we magnify, but is actually determined by resolution. Resolution refers to the smallest distance ...

For the first time, researchers have observed live and in high resolution how influenza (“flu”) viruses infect living cells. This was possible thanks to a new microscopy technique, developed at ETH ...

Scientists have captured a never-before-seen, high-resolution look at influenza’s stealthy invasion of human cells, revealing that the cells aren’t just helpless victims. Using a groundbreaking ...

As the pocket grows, it encloses the virus, leading to the formation of a vesicle. The cell transports this vesicle into its interior, where the vesicle coating dissolves and releases the virus.

Cells actively help to capture and incorporate influenza viruses. Here, a cell is shown, with a virus in the centre of the image. Fever, aching limbs and a runny nose – as winter returns, so too does ...

Using cryo-electron microscopy, researchers have investigated the structure of Bas63, a bacteriophage of the subfamily Ounavirinae and the Felixounavirus genus which targets Escherichia coli, to ...

Electron microscopy has become a vital tool in structural biology, enabling researchers to visualize biological macromolecules at near-atomic resolution. Recent advances have transformed it from a low ...
