Abstract:
We describe how electron microscopic images can be selectively colorized to accentuate ultrastructural detail for teaching purposes. Images are either captured by a CCD camera attached to the electron microscope or are scanned into a computer as electron micrographs. The computer's digital images are then manipulated using image-editing and colorizing software to highlight specific ultrastructural details, and subsequently printed or converted into 35-mm slides to be used for teaching.
