Electron Microscopy
Services
 |
We carry out a wide range of services from conventional electron microscopy to negative staining. The facility is organized to encourage the use of the equipment by individual users both within and outside the university. Individual and small-group instruction in the use of equipment and in electron microscopy techniques is provided to faculty, staff, post-doctoral fellows and residents. In addition, electron microscopy services are available for a set fee. Examples of some the services provided are: Routine sample preparation for transmission electron microscopy, including specimen preparation, specimen observation and image capturing, ultrathin sectioning and negative staining. |
Those interested in Cryoelectron Microscopy please visit the Cryo-EM/ET core facility.
It is located in the Rutgers Institute for Quantitative Biomedicine.
