Pros of Liquid Cell TEM In liquid cell TEM, the cell can be maintained in a relatively high pressure environment as the sample volume is encapsulated and maintained in a screening membrane. The top ...

Negative staining is often used to study the characteristic core-shell structure of cell membrane (CM)-coated polymeric nanoparticles (NPs) via transmission electron microscopy (TEM). However, ...

Our cells are surrounded by a fragile membrane that's only 5 nanometers thick, 1/20 of a soap bubble. Cells are easily damaged by physiological activities, including muscle contraction and tissue ...

New proteins involved in regulating the cell membrane A better understanding of how cells regulate their membranes could lead to new treatments for diseases such as epilepsy and anemia Date ...

Novel chemical tool for understanding membrane remodeling in the cell Date: May 3, 2024 Source: Umea University Summary: Researchers describe a natural product-like molecule, Tantalosin, that ...

This new understanding of membrane behavior could shift how scientists think about the role of internal membrane viscosity in cellular processes and have important implications for interpreting ...

The cell membrane is composed of a lipid bilayer, with inner and outer layers of fatty molecules (phospholipids, cholesterol, and glycolipids) oriented in opposite directions.
