Choosing The Right Microscopy Method For Your Lab Or Business
The High Stakes of Electron Microscopy
Electron microscopy is often touted as the pinnacle of research technology, but what many don’t know is that it requires an astronomical investment, not just in terms of money but also space and maintenance.
The electron beams that offer incredibly high resolution also open Pandora’s box of challenges. Maintaining these powerful instruments is like caring for a living organism—it’s complex and demanding.
However, those who master it gain the ability to see substances at the atomic level, revolutionizing fields from materials science to virology. Intrigued? There’s more.
Subtle flaws in electron microscopy can lead to distorted data. So, why are some labs shifting back to simpler methods? The next page holds the answer you’ll never expect…
