“…In AFM, such large NM-300K NPs were not taken into account since it was not possible to accurately determine their height because these large NPs sat on top of other NPs. Compared to our NM-300K direct technique-based average size of 16.8 ± 12.0 nm (Table 1), a recent study using traditional and tabletop TEMs provides similar values albeit with a narrower range in the NP size determination of NM-300K, 17.2 ± 5.5 nm and 19.1 ± 3.3 nm, respectively [84]. Quantification of sub-population proportions is a major challenge for metrological characterization of nanomaterials.…”

“…The new low-voltage TEMs LVEM25/MiniTEM provide significant improvement of the imaging performance in comparison with the low-voltage desktop TEM LVEM5 which is operated at 5 kV. 10 The LVEM5 uses the same core technology than the LVEM25 and is much smaller than the LVEM25/MiniTEM, but penetration depth of the electron beam is limited to very thin samples such as nanoparticles, 18 small viruses (Michael Laue, unpublished observations), or very thin sections, 19,20 which prevents its routine usage in diagnostic EM of viruses. Although the LVEM25/MiniTEM can be used for diagnostic EM of viruses, a few features should be optimized.…”
