Identifying Carbon Nanoparticles in Biological Samples by Means of Transmission Electron Microscopy

  • Published:
Bulletin of the Russian Academy of Sciences: Physics Aims and scope

Abstract

Carbon nanoparticles are a widespread type of nanoparticles that are very difficult to identify in biological samples. It is shown that using conventional transmission electron microscopy in combination with electron diffraction is a reliable and relevant tool for identifying carbon nanoparticles in biological samples.
