Notes:
This paper is a condensation of precautions, general information, and common-sense tips designed to assist students in electron microscopy. Although not all circumstances are included and many of the recommendations are common sense, this handout has proven invaluable to beginners in two different multiuser electron microscopy facilities. When integrated by discussion and testing into the initial training period, this information will save the neophyte, lab manager, and others working in a multiuser facility untold hours of frustration, of wasted time, effort, and supplies, and of exposure to the myriad environmental hazards inherent in the performance of electron microscopy. The rationale for these suggestions is included, enhancing problem-solving in situations not covered directly in this presentation.
