| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study we acquired serial 2D images from conventionally prepared tissue samples from wild type and genetically engineered mouse brain and compared 3D reconstructed images by using conventional ssTEM and FIB-SEM (in collaboration with the Fukazawa lab at Fukui Univ.). FIB-SEM, but not ssTEM, found a unique anomaly in synapse morphology, mainly due to the thickness along Z-axis (5nm vs. 50nm), whereas ssTEM could cover wider volume than FIB-SEM. Comparison of the two methods with immunogold-labeled samples is under investigation.
