Original Abstract

The instrumental capabilities of observing frozen samples in electron microscopy are still not sufficient for visualizing unfixed, morphologically and chemically unmodified nonconductive samples in the environmentally relevant sub-zero temperatures. Here, we present new environmental scanning electron microscopy (ESEM) method which overcomes the technological deficiencies of the commercial microscopes in order to observe the unchanged morphology of the frozen aqueous sample at thermodynamic equilibrium.
