Electron Microscopy
Services
Vitrology offers Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) services, including, negative staining and thin sectioning techniques for the detection of adventitious agents. Vitrology cell biology scientists have exceptional theoretical and practical scientific experience within the CRO and academic environment. Our highly trained electron microscopy staff have applied these techniques successfully to the biological manufacturing industry over the past 10 years. Our Philips CM-10 transmission electron microscope, equipped with both plate and digital camera systems, can process digital images, providing fast throughput of results and audited reports. The following assays are available:
