Abstract

The application of analytical electron microscopy to the high spatial resolution study of biological systems is reviewed. Specimen preparation, quantitative analysis, capabilities and limitations are all discussed, pricipally in the context of energy-dispersive X-ray analysis. Results are presented using both current techniques and the developing quantitative image analysis. Finally the role of new instrumental approaches, including electron energy loss spectrometry, is discussed.
