Category em_tomography

Category Description

   Electron tomography allows the structural organisation of individual 
    cells and organelles and bacterial cells to be studied at nanometre 
    resolution. The samples are unique objects which precludes averaging 
    over many copies so that tomograms are built from images of a  tilt 
    series taken from a single copy of the object.
