Description

Abstract
X-RAY microscopy has evolved into an important ultrastructure imaging approach for visualizing and measuring intact cells in three dimensions. Beamlines dedicated to cellular imaging have been constructed at synchrotron facilities around the world, and the CO-PI of this proposal developed the first commercial laboratory x-RAY microscope for cellular imaging. The approaches thus far have centered around the use of "water window" x-rays, having energies between 285 to 540EV and for which water is transparent but organic content is absorbing. However, there are several major drawbacks to using these low energy x-rays: they severely limit the size of cells that can be imaged (e.g.,
