Energy Dispersion X-Ray Analysis by Scanning Electron Microscopy for Measuring Cellular Elemental Composition in Bacterial Cells
AUTOR(ES)
Greaves, H.
RESUMO
The use of scanning electron microscopy in conjuction with energy dispersion analysis of X rays is presented as a technique in a novel application to in situ studies of cellular elemental composition. The method has been applied, in the example of its use reported here, to examining the effects of copper-chromearsenic wood preservative on growth and element uptake of selected bacteria in agar cultures.
