Abstract:Microanalysis at non-traditional sample specific SEM operating conditions is useful when studying characteristics of the organism that are not readily apparent using traditional methods. The operating conditions are typically tailored to the tolerances of the sample being investigated, and in the case of biological plant specimens, a low kV SEM beam is routinely employed for sample surface imaging and to reduce beam damage to the tissue. This work explores SEM EDS of biological plant materials using moderate S… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
