•Electron microscopes

MicroscopeMicroscope*Useful of a microscope depends on it’s resolution.

___________the number of times an image is

enlarged.10x, 40x, 60x, 100x

Magnification

__________a measurement of clarity, the

smallest distance between two points on a specimen that can still be distinguished.

Resolution

Designed by Pyeongsug Kim, ©2009

• Light microscope - glass lens; 1,000x

• Electron microscope - electron lens; 100,000x - shorter than the waves of visible light.

• Atomic force microscope -an atomic scale; no preparation need.

Light microscopeLight microscope-Light pass through a specimen. ; 1000x-Some need to stain bacteria.; some don’t increase contrast b/w microorganisms and surroundings.

-Bright-field (most common) Phase-constrast, Interference, Dark-field, Confocal, Fluorensence

Which type of microscope are you using in Bio27 Lab. class?

Bright-field microscopeor compound microscope•A compound light microscope is also called a bright field microscope. We usually call compound microscope.

1) ______________1) ______________ - Most common - Fixed specimen(killed) or moving organism (live) eg) E.Coli stained by Scarlet Euglena in pond water…

2) _____________ - amplifies differences in refractive index to

create contrast. - a darker appearance of the denser material. increasing contrast. -does not require staining to view the slidedoes not require staining to view the slide. -Makes unstained cells more readily visible. -Best for observing intracellular structures

Phase-contrast

3) ___________ -Light is directed toward the specimen

at an angle. -can see unstained cells Makes unstained cells more readily

visible. -stand out as bright objects against a

dark background.

Dark field

YES!

•Bright-field – most widely used, specimen is darker than surrounding field

•Dark-field – brightly illuminated specimens surrounded by dark field

•Phase-contrast – transforms subtle changes in light waves passing through the specimen into differences in light intensity, best for observing intracellular structures

5) ___________ -Light onto the specimen (not pass through) cells attached to soil particles or other opaque materials

-UV light -Fluorescent dyes and Tags Uses dyes that emit visible light when bombarded

with shorter uv rays. Can stain intracellular structures Can stain live cells Can distinguish living and dead cells Can be used in quantitative analysis

Fluorescence

Can we see microbes alive? ____ YES!

6) ___________ -Light onto the specimen (not pass through) -3D image!!3D image!! -Can see inside intact cell in DETAIL. a miniature CAT scan for cells.

- Cell division -may use fluorescent dyes to see cellular location or to determine molecule compound.

- For thick structure eg) community of organism.

Confocal scanning laser

CAT scan for brain

Can we see microbes alive? ____ YES!

• _______________ - Can magnify images in excess of 100,000X - Fine details of cell structure - Should be in vacuum. - TEM(Transmission electron microscope),

SEM(scanning electron microscope)

Electron microscope has better resolution than light one.

Can we see microbes alive? Nope!!

Electron microscope (Cont’d)Electron microscope (Cont’d)

1) _____________________ -To see inside cell. (organelles) - transmits electrons through the specimen -Thin sectioning Freeze fracturing, freeze etching -Vacuum required. -Artifacts are concern.

2) ______________________ -To see surface of the cell. -Vacuum NOT required. - a whole, metal-coated specimen with

electrons - 3D image!!3D image!! Very expensive~~~~
