Electron Microscopy TEM Services
Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) in Bioimaging enables high-resolution visualization of cells, tissues, and biomolecular structures, providing critical insights in biology and medicine. TEM allows researchers to investigate the ultrastructure of cellular organelles such as mitochondria and lysosomes, analyze morphological changes in neurodegenerative diseases and cancer, and examine interactions between cells and pathogens like viruses and bacteria. Additionally, this technique facilitates the characterization of proteins and large biomolecular complexes, including amyloid fibrils associated with neurodegenerative disorders. In the field of biomedicine, TEM is instrumental in studying nanoparticle behavior within biological systems, designing advanced drug delivery carriers, and exploring controlled-release mechanisms for therapeutic agents.
