Obtaining contrast in light microscopy by exploiting changes in the. Immunofluorescence microscopy (dead cells: antibodies are prepared for specific proteins (e. g. tubulin, actin, a sample cell culture is fixed on a slide in a process which kills and. Electron microscopy: electron microscopy can provide much better resolution than light and fluorescence microscopy, electrons have wavelike properties; wavelength of essentially. Lecture 3: isolation and analysis of cell organelles and molecules. Hoescht stain can penetrate into the nucleus and bind to. Darker bands on the developed x-ray film represent large concentrations of the protein of interest. Positions of marker proteins on the film need to be manually labeled with a pen.
