Document Summary

Bioa01h3: unifying principles life on earth - lecture 13: electron microscopy: microscopy is able to detect organisms as small as 1mm 1cm, election microscopy is the oldest use of biological imaging techniques. Light comes in packets (photon) that have wavelength characters: photons strike objects that either reflect or absorb or transmitted them through a object ex. microscope. The discovery of fluorescent proteins live for cell-imaging green fluorescent protein (gfp) Scanning electron microscopy (sem): based on scattered electrons. Transmission electron microscopy (tem): sees inside a sample.
