Abstract

Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) is the main technique used to study the ultrastructure of biological samples. Chemical fixation was considered the main method for preserving samples for TEM; however, it is a relatively slow method of fixation and can result in morphological alterations. Cryofixation using high-pressure freezing (HPF) overcomes the limitations of chemical fixation by preserving samples instantly. Here, we describe our HPF methods optimized for visualizing Candida auris at the ultrastructural level.
