Generating Three Dimensional Models of Skin Cells Using Serial Block-Face Scanning Electron Microscopy

The Gatan 3View®2 is one of a new generation of three dimensional electron microscopy (3DEM) systems that has been developed in the scanning electron microscope. A recent study from the School of Life Sciences and Biotechnology at Korea University was published in the Journal of Electron Microscopy. The group used Gatan 3View®2 data to search for melanosomes, as well as generating 3D models of melanocytes, results from which are displayed in this application note.
