3D confocal microscopy

 

Immunolocalization of Golgi in GH3 cells. Cells were grown on polylysine-coated coverslips, fixed with 3% paraformaldehyde, and permeabilized with 0.2% saponin. They were immunostained for antigens specific to Golgi. 

Images were collected with a BioRad MRC 600 laser scanning confocal microscope at the Analytical Imaging Facility.   Maximum pixel projections for the 360 degree rotation were performed with NIH-Image.  The quicktime movie (which you should see spinning at the left) was made with Adobe Premier.
