Scanning Ion Microscopy and Its Application in Microbiology
Journal Title: Journal of Clinical Immunology & Microbiology - Year 2023, Vol 4, Issue 3
Abstract
Helium ion microscopy, a scanning microscope operating with ions rather than electrons, is one of the best equipment to analyze the surface of cells and the surface of intracellular compartments exposed by different methods. This short review aims to show the advantages of resolution and depth of focus in some microorganisms such as viruses, bacteria, fungi and parasitic protists.
