Electron Microscopy Laboratory | Services

A complete range of conventional preparative services are offered, allowing investigators to submit fresh or fixed tissues and receive representative study prints in digital format or from scanned negatives within a reasonable turnaround time.

Special services available include direct negative staining, immuno electron microscopy, and immunocytochemistry.

Diagnostic services are done for the department, the Athens Diagnostic Laboratory, the Poultry Disease Research Center, and the college’s Teaching Hospital in which electron microscopy is essential for correct diagnosis. These diagnostic services are also offered to outside veterinary clinics and other diagnostic facilities requiring electron microscopy.

Research in electron microscopy is also done for the various departments within the college and throughout the university campus and surrounding research facilities. On-site instruction and training is available to most individuals who would like to utilize the facility for their own research and casework.

Graduate students or technicians needing the services of the facility in their own or assigned research projects are encouraged to take the electron microscopy course which is offered annually at The Center for Advanced Ultrastructural Studies.
