JEOL JEM 1200EX Transmission Electron Microscope

Transmission electron microscopy allows high resolution imaging of thin sections of biological material and negatively stained small particles.  Electron diffraction of crystalline samples can give information about the spacing of the atoms in the sample's crystalline lattice.  Images from this instrument are captured with a high resolution digital camera. 

The purchase of high resolution camera was funded by a Major Instrumentation Grant from the National Science Foundation (NSF).
