Topic
Methods of electron microscopic fixation, embedding and sectioning and the use of the electron microscope. Demonstration of the subcellular elements in details and of a few tissues and organs. Demonstration of the electron microscopic methods used in the biological research. The use of electron microscopic methods in the clinical practice.
The basic principles of electron microscopy will be discussed and we provide information about the mode and the use of electron microscopy in the basic research and in the clinical practice.
