Abstract

Electron microscopy has developed into a standard research method in medicine and biology. Because of the possibilities to represent structures in the range of macromolecular dimensions it is used in routine diagnostic work and pathology as well as high-resolution structure research [49]. Today electron microscopy has a permanent place in diagnostics and biopsies of the liver, kidney, muscle, nerves, intestine, in hygiene and virology, and particularly in molecular biology.
