Co-operative study by high voltage electron microscopy
The high voltage electron microscope (H-1250M) specially designed for the exclusive use for medical and biological field in Japan is available since 1982.
This is only a high voltage electron microscope in the biological field in Japan, the collaborative research programs are running from universities etc. on three projects:
1) three-dimensional analysis of fine structures of biological specimens till about 5μm thick
2) high resolution observation of biological specimens
3) observation of biological specimens in their natural conditions. Average availability of the H-1250M is about 80% since installation. Almost half of the total number of days used since 1982 was utilized by researchers from other universities and institutes including from other countries. In these respects, the H- 1250M has worked as a center of high voltage electron microscope in the medical and biological field in Japan.
In 2008, 13 projects were accepted and 66 days were used by researchers from outside of the institute, 65 days by researchers inside.
