Since electron microscope (EM) readily reveals the structures of biological and inorganic molecules at higher resolution than light microscope, it has been used preferably to investigate the ultrastructure including organisms, tissues, cells, macromolecules, and metals providing detailed structural information about the analytes.
Transmission electron microscope (TEM) is the original form of EM, and has played an important role in the early discovery of viruses, such as Ebola virus, hepatitis A virus, hepatitis B virus, SARSCov. In early years, TEM, as one of methods for rapid virus detection, has been used extensively in identifying pathogens of unknown origins. But the emerging of cryo-EM has largely replaced TEM in virus detection, and is now considered as the mainstream technology for studying the structure of biological macromolecules at near-atomic resolution. EM is not only used in virus identification and characterization, but also in identifying biological particles (Figure 1) and inorganic molecules (Figure 2). Creative Biostructure has a wealth of experience in studying EM technology, and is dedicated to provide our customer with a great insight into sciences.
