Corneal endothelium of the Magellanic penguin (Spheniscus magellanicus) by scanning electron microscopy
(2005-12-01)
The corneal endothelium is essential for the maintenance of the corneal transparency. The aim of this study was to examine the morphology of the endothelial surface and perform morphometric analysis of the normal corneal ...
Scanning electron microscopy study of the choroid plexus in the monkey (Cebus apella apella)
(2000-09-01)
The cells of the choroid plexus of the lateral ventricles of the monkey Cebus apella apella were examined through scanning electron microscopy at contributing to the description of such structures in primates. The animals ...
The structure of the human temporomandibular joint disc: A scanning electron microscopy study
(1997-12-01)
The articular disc of the temporomandibular joint was studied in fetuses (16 to 39 weeks of intrauterine life), infants (up to 4 months of age), dentulous adults (aged 30 to 39 years), and completely edentulous adults (aged ...
Correlative fractography: Combining scanning electron microscopy and light microscopes for qualitative and quantitative analysis of fracture surfaces
(2013-04-01)
Correlative fractography is a new expression proposed here to describe a new method for the association between scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and light microscopy (LM) for the qualitative and quantitative analysis of ...
Scanning electron microscope assessment of several resharpening techniques on the cutting edges of gracey curettes
(2007-11-01)
Aim: Treatment of periodontal diseases is based on efficient scaling and root planing (SRP) and adequate maintenance of the patient. The effectiveness of SRP is influenced by operator skill, access to the subgingival area, ...
Scanning electron microscopic evaluation of the root apex of mandibular premolars.
(2010-09-07)
This aim of this study was to evaluate the root apex of mandibular premolars regarding the presence of main and accessory foramina. The root apexes from fifty extracted mandibular single-rooted premolars were examined by ...
Scanning electron microscopic and profilometric study of different sharpening stones
(2006-12-01)
Scaling and root planing contribute to the recovery of periodontal health. All periodontal instruments loose their fine cutting angle after use. To maintain this angle, correct sharpening is required using specifically ...
A scanning electron microscopic study of the rete testis of the guinea pig
(1998-12-14)
Scanning electron microscopic (SEM) observations of the structure of the rete testis (RT) of guinea pigs preceded by and complemented with stereomicroscopy and light-microscopic studies showed that the RT of this species ...
Correlative light-electron fractography for fatigue striations characterization in metallic alloys
(2013-09-01)
The correlative light-electron fractography technique combines correlative microscopy concepts to the extended depth-from-focus reconstruction method, associating the reliable topographic information of 3-D maps from light ...
Ultrastructural aspects of the mandibular gland of Melipona bicolor Lepeletier, 1836 (Hymenoptera : Apidae, Meliponini) in the castes
(Elsevier B.V., 2004-01-01)
The mandibular gland in Melipona bicolor workers and queens was studied by scanning and transmission electron microscopy. There is no difference in the gland anatomy between the castes, but the transmission electron ...
