Facility Details

The BIDMC Electron Microscopy Core provides service for grossing, tissue processing, tissue embedding, thick and thin sectioning, staining grids, and taking images of samples in the electron microscope. Training is available to use the electron microscope independently. For tissue processing, we also have training or service for high pressure freezing, freeze substitution, and tissue embedding. The core also has the expertise to do Advanced 3-D Focused Ion Beam/Scanning Electron Microscopy and 3-D segmentation and analysis on cells or tissues.
