EM relies on electron beams to form ... using conventional fluorescence microscopy, while simultaneously capturing information such as the identity of proteins (Fig. 1). The breakthrough stems ...

The electron microscope is a type of microscope that uses a beam of electrons to create an image of the specimen. It is capable of much higher magnifications and has a greater resolving power than a ...

The blowers also emit carbon monoxide, a gas that binds to the hemoglobin protein in red blood cells and can prevent the cell from loading oxygen and CO2. The unburned fuel that leaks in the ...

This valuable paper analyses the role of endogenous CNS hemoglobin in protecting mitochondrial homeostasis ... was used to clarify the origin of EVs containing different mRNAs. Proteins were extracted ...
