One mission of the Facility is to establish user - friendly workflows ranging from sample preparation to image acquisition, image processing, and long - term data storage, especially for imaging modalities generating very big datasets or files, such as slide - scanning, high - content screening, and 3 -
D scanning electron microscopy.

This work, with the assistance of soil scientists at the University of KwaZulu - Natal,
has involved a suite of techniques, including x-ray fluorescence (to provide quantitative data on minor and trace element composition), x-ray diffraction (to reveal crystal structure and parent rock types of paint ingredients), and environmental
scanning electron microscopy (to yield qualitative data on elements present).

electrons over a sample that
has been coated with specially engineered quantum dots.

microscopy,
scanning and transmission
electron microscopy and three - dimensional confocal laser
microscopy, successfully contributed novel information on the structure and morphology of ceratomyxid parasite stages in the bile, and provided unique insights into parasite composition, cell motility and cytokinesis in myxozoans, which
had not previously been studied.
