- 02:05Imaging of Corresponding ROIs on the Reference and Look-Up Sections on TEM with Software Packages
- 05:25Analyze the TEM images with ImageJ to Document Ultrastructural Features
- 07:10Using SerialEM Script to Optimize Elemental Analysis in Brain Samples in Combination with DigitalMicrograph
- 09:19Results: Unbiased Approach of Sampling TEM Sections
- 10:25Conclusion
We introduce a novel workflow for electron microscopy investigations of brain tissue. The method allows the user to examine neuronal features in an unbiased fashion. For elemental analysis, we also present a script that automatizes most of the workflow for randomized sampling.
