For conventional imaging in the SEM,
specimens
must
be electrically
conductive, at least at the surface,
and electrically grounded to prevent the
accumulation of electrostatic charge at
the surface. Metal objects require little
special preparation for SEM except for
cleaning and mounting on a specimen
stub.
The cells are grown in a cell culture
container. Some cells are fixed to retain
the original morphology or structure of
cells and tissues. A microtome is use to
cut thin sections.
The specimen are prepared by fixation
done in three ways:
1. Cross-linking - involves treating
specimens with reagents that

The electron beam scans the surface of the sample coated with a
thin film of gold. The beam excites the electrons on the surface,
and these secondary electrons are detected by a device that
translates the patter of electrons into an electronic signal to a
video screen. The result is an image of the specimen topography.
The SEM has a great depth of field, resulting in an image that
appears three-dimensional.
The phase contrast microscope uses the fact that the light passing
through a transparent part of the specimen travels slower and,
due to this is shifted compared to the uninfluenced light. This
difference in phase is not visible to the human eye. However, the
change in phase can be increased to half a wavelength by a
transparent phase-plate in the microscope and thereby causing a
difference in brightness. This makes the transparent object shine
out in contrast to its surroundings.
The basic task of the fluorescence microscope is to let excitation
light radiate the specimen and then sort out the much weaker
