## Abstract Nothing in biology stimulates the imagination like the development of a single fertilized egg into a newborn child. Consequently, a major focus of biomedical research is aimed at understanding cell differentiation, proliferation, and specialization during child health and human developm
This paper summarizes methods conventionally used to prepare thin foil samples of powder materials for transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and introduces another variant, ultramicrotomy, for the preparation of TEM samples of industrial dust powder. The choice of ultramicrotoming in the present wo
Collagen fibril assembly is a multistep process involving multiple macromolecular interactions. Type XIV collagen contains multiple domains and is capable of interacting with collagen fibrils and other extracellular matrix components. During tendon development, naturally changing expression of type
## Abstract Collagen films with oriented fibrils mimic tissues that have been remodeled by fibroblasts, which naturally tend to orient collagen fibrils __in vivo__. We have prepared thin films of ordered fibrils of collagen I, a major component of the extracellular matrix. The films were prepared b
