Transmission Electron Microscopy images of Rat Kidney thin sections

[Reakt20]

Here are some images of some rat kidney that I processed and sectioned.
I used a Karnovsky's fixative (paraformaldehyde / glutaraldehyde with a phosphate buffer for the primary fix and osmium tetroxide for secondary fix.) uranyl acetate for the tertiary fix. Post stained with lead citrate. Thin sections about 40 nanometers thick. Images obtained using a JEOL 1200 Transmission Electron Microscope. I'll post more soon. I have tons of microscopy images on all kinds of scopes since I'm getting my AAS in Electron Microscopy.






In the glumerulus^











Thanks for looking!

That is freakin sweet man. Do you do that for a living?

Thanks. No, not yet. I have 1 more year left. It's pretty fun and I seem to be good at it which helps. I'll enjoy doing it for a living.
