        2. mag= x1500
          1. staining- coloured dyes bind to biological organisms
            1. sectioning- specimens embedded in wax
            2. electron microscopes
              1. TEM & SEM
                1. X500,000. RS=0.2nm
                  1. beam passes through
                    1. 2d images
                  2. x100,000 RS=0.2nm
                    1. beam bounces off, produces 3d images
                  3. electrons have a wavelength of 0.004nm
                    1. limitations: need a high degree of skill and training.
                      1. very expensive
                        1. air molecules deflect electrons so needs to be done in a vaacuum
