The image of a walnut pollen in the scanning electron microscope.
This small pollen is not even half a millimetre in size: it’s diameter is approx. 40 µm.
Common Applications:Since pollen is very resistant to decomposition, pollen analyses can Read more
An inconspicuous green cress leaflet reveals many interesting openings on the leaf underside within a scanning electron microscope: the stomata. These pores control the rate of gas exchange. The diameter of the shown stoma is about 8 µm.The displayed Read more
