Scientists at ETH Zurich have developed a new microscopic particle for targeted drug delivery inside the human body.

The flower particles have a large surface area compared to their size, with tiny pores between the petals that can absorb a ...

These small particles are reminiscent of paper flowers or desert roses. Physicians can use them to guide medicines to a ...

For instance, researchers can use high resolution electron microscopy to take a snapshot through a thin cross-section or slice of a cell. In this way, they can see the structural detail and key ...

The Electron Microscopy shared resource offers techniques that allow researchers to resolve structures from cellular ultrastructure all the way down to molecular interactions. Our expertise in EM ...

Electron microscopy uses a beam of electrons to illuminate ... one of the most central processes in all living cells. Here the authors show how KEOPS, a multi-subunit tRNA modifying complex ...

Photo: The HIV viruses have acquired a membrane, falsely colored green in this electron micrograph, from their host white blood cell membrane. In 1977 a Danish doctor working in Zaire (now Congo ...

red and white blood cells, and the surface of a leaf. He then discusses the difference between a transmission and scanning electron microscope and views some images of cells, organelles and virus ...
