The largest database of trusted experimental protocols

Anelectron microscope

Manufactured by Zeiss

An electron microscope is a scientific instrument that uses a beam of accelerated electrons to generate high-resolution images of the surface and internal structure of a specimen. The core function of an electron microscope is to provide significantly higher magnification and resolution compared to traditional light microscopes, allowing researchers to study the microstructure and nanoscale features of materials and biological samples.

Lipid Staining in HepG2 and AML12 Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
HepG2 and AML12 cells were first pretreated with FFA as described above. After three
washes using PBS, the cells were stained for 15 min after fixation with 4% formaldehyde
using 0.05 μg/ml Nile red solution (Solarbio). The cell nuclei were stained using 496
diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI, Yeasen). The microscopic pictures were captured using an
electron microscope (Zeiss).

Visualizing Lipid Droplet Formation

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
HepG2 and AML12 cells were first incubated for 24 h with FFA, washed twice with
phosphate-buffered saline (PBS), fixed for 20 min with 4% formaldehyde, and thereafter
rewashed three times with PBS. The cells were then stained for 15 min using Oil Red O
(Nanjing Jiancheng Bioengineering Institute) and thereafter washed three times with PBS.
The resultant lipid droplets were observed and photographed under an electron microscope
(Zeiss).

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
