Microscopic techniques for non-polarized cells and monolayers grown on glass or plastic are described.
However, further studies need to focus on the robustness of these proxies, applying isolation and microscopic techniques to monitoring these organisms in the face of oil contamination.
Different microscopic techniques were used on polished thin sections and fracture surfaces in order to understand the method of producing these renders and the effect of urban pollution on them.
We employed a real-time, single-particle microscopic technique based on micropipette injection to characterize the behavior of these materials and their mixtures upon solvent loss and precipitation.
The actual size of the individual microgel particle was calculated based on the microscopic techniques.
Various analyses were used to characterize polypropylene films grafted with poly acrylic acid): infra-red spectroscopy (by means of transmission, total attenuated reflection and microscopic techniques), permeation and optical microscopy on coloured samples.
Hemocytes, melanotic capsules and parasitic wasp eggs were obtained by careful dissection of third-instar larvae in a drop of Ringer solution on a microscopic slide and immediately examined by one of fluorescent microscopic techniques.
Within the lateral organisation of plasma membranes of polarized cell types there exist heterogenous microdomains of distinct lipid composition, the small size of which (10 200 nm) makes them difficult to discern with traditional microscopic techniques, but which can be distinguished on the basis of lipid packing.
Most fossils sported "eye spots" on their wings, and microscopic techniques revealed tube-shaped mouthparts and wing scales.
To solve the problems arising from difficulties in identification based on morphology, modern molecular and microscopic techniques can be a useful tool.
