Check out these lovely colorized SEM micrographs of pollen in a spider web by Anna Walkiewicz from @Quorum_UK. These were coated with 7nm Pt in a Q150V S Plus Sputter Coater. #sem #microscopy #electronmicroscopy #samplepreparation #coating #science #emqde

This #SEM has both @OxInst #EDS and #EBSD detectors that can do compositional and crystallographic #analysis of samples. We also have a @Quorum_UK #Cryo-SEM system on this microscope! Here is our #JEOL 6610 and an image of a needle and thread taken on this instrument!

Just a few more wrinkles to iron out and we’ll be ready for #mm2022Portland tomorrow. ⁦@Quorum_UK⁩ is on booth 1134.

For #MicroscopyMonday this week, our #image is brought to you from last week's #MicroscopyLIVE event! Here we have a #CryoSEM image taken of honeycomb #IceCream using our @jeoleurope 6610 LV-SEM!🍨 Cryo-SEM provided by @Quorum_UK.

Uni of Leeds, UK, and NTU, Pakistan, looked at fiber damage in textiles after repeated washing cycles. SEM images were taken in a JSM-6610 before and after washing cycles. The specimens were sputter-coated with gold in a Q150RS from @Quorum_UK. journals.sagepub.com/doi/pdf/10.117…

Sarah will present her talk "Super-resolution microscopy reveals hierarchical organisation of spatially segregated protein nanoclusters within focal adhesions" and write a piece for the @focalplane_jcs website! We can't wait to see you there! eventbrite.ie/e/second-joint…

Stem cells can be used to produce cultured meat for human consumption. This study shows that tissues from FAP cells mimics beef fat in terms of taste. Samples were coated with gold on a SC7620 by @Quorum_UK before imaging in a JSM-IT200 from JEOL. rdcu.be/cIBea

Investigating the causes of infertility in hybrid Assassin Bugs, SEM analysis identified possible abnormalities in the hybrid eggshell. Samples were coated with 30nm gold using a Q150 T ES sputter coater, with a rotary planetary stage, by @Quorum_UK. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
