Electron Microscopy for Rapid Diagnosis of Emerging Infectious Agents

Electron Microscopy for Rapid Diagnosis of Emerging Infectious Agents

Diagnostic electron microscopy has two advantages over enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and nucleic acid amplification tests. After a simple and fast negative stain preparation, the undirected, “open view” of electron microscopy allows rapid morphologic identification and differential diagnosis of...
