A practical protocol for correlative confocal fluorescence and transmission electron microscopy characterization of extracellular vesicles by Juan M. Martínez-Andrade, Daniel Salgado-Bautista, Kendra Ramirez-Acosta, Ruben Darío Cadena-Nava, Meritxell Riquelme

“…However, imaging these membrane-bound particles presents challenges due to their nanoscopic size (typically <200 nm), which exceeds the resolution limit of conventional diffraction-limited laser scanning confocal microscopy (LSCM). While high-resolution techniques like transmission electron microscopy (TEM) offer superior spatial resolution, they are time-consuming, require specialized expertise, and are prone to artifacts that can interfere with accurate results. …”
