Advanced Techniques in Biological Electron Micros- copy III.With Contributions by A.P.Aguas,M.F.Barbosa,R.P.Bolender a.oth. 1986.110 figs.XII,277 p.gr8vo.Cloth.

Contents:This is the third volume in a series presenting in-depthtreatment of the latest advances in electron microscopical analysis ofbiological materials.It concentrates on six techniques:the applicationof computer technology to problems in biological stereology;the use ofelectron diffraction methods for structural determination and the reconstruction of three-dimensional molecular information;the detectionof diffusible ions using energy dispersive x-ray spetrometry;a new metaldeposition technology;the preparation and application of colloidal goldas a cytochemical marker;and a combination of freeze-fracture,labeling,and sectioning methods that reveals the nature of the interiors ofbiological membranes.The high level of these contributions will make this volume a valuable source book for research scientists already proficient in basic electron optical methods.
