Recently, the combination of efficient tissue clearing techniques and light-sheet fluorescence microscopy (LSFM) for rapid 3D imaging has improved access to 3D spatial information in biological systems. This technology has found applications in various fields, including neuroscience, cancer research, and clinical histopathology, leading to significant insights. It allows imaging of entire organs or even whole bodies of animals and humans at multiple scales. Moreover, it enables a form of spatial omics by capturing and analyzing cellome information, which represents the complete spatial organization of cells. While current 3D imaging of cleared tissues has limitations in obtaining sufficient molecular information, emerging technologies such as multi-round tissue staining and super-multicolor imaging are expected to address these constraints. 3D imaging using tissue clearing and light-sheet microscopy thus offers a valuable research tool in the current and future life sciences for acquiring and analyzing large-scale biological spatial information.</p>","PeriodicalId":74193,"journal":{"name":"Microscopy (Oxford, England)","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-09-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142333935","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The key factor in PEFCs is the nano-scaled electrochemical reactions that take place on the catalyst material and an ionomer supported by a carbon support. However, because the nano-scaled morphological features of the key materials in the catalyst compound cannot be observed clearly by transmission electron microscopy, improvement of PEFC performance had been approached by an imaginal schematic diagram based on an electrochemical analysis. In this study, we revealed the nano-scaled morphological features of the PEFC electrode in three dimensions and performed a quantitative analysis of the nanostructure by the newly developed 'Combined ADF-STEM tomography technique'. This method combines information from plural annular darkfield detectors with different electron collection angles and can emphasize the difference of the electron scattering intensity between the ionomer and carbon in the cross-sectional image of the reconstructed three-dimensional (3D) data. Therefore, this segmentation method utilizing image contrast does not require a high electron beam current like that used in energy dispersive X-ray analysis, and thus is suitable for electron beam damage-sensitive materials.

The method is well suited for conducting sample searches in aberration-corrected scanning/transmission electron microscopes (S/TEM), where the survey can be very time-consuming because of the limited field of view imposed by the highly excited objective lens after fine-tuning the aberration correctors. For implementation, a digital image of the sample and the TEM holder was captured using a simple stereo-optical microscope. Naturally presented geometric patterns on the holder were referenced to construct a projective transformation between the electron and optical coordinate systems. The test results demonstrated that the method was accurate and required no electron microscope or specimen holder modifications. Additionally, it eliminated the need to mount the sample onto specific patterned TEM grids or deposit markers, resulting in universal applications for most TEM samples, holders and electron microscopes for fast FOI identification.
