摘要
Electron tomography of thin sections of plastic-em bedded biological material provides valuable insights into the organellar organization of cells, With the advent of automated data-acquisition procedures, it has become possible to study radiation-sensitive specimens, such as frozen-hydrated organelles and whole cells. This opens up exciting perspectives for visualizing the molecular organization of the cytoplasm.
