SEM stands for scanning electron microscope. The SEM is a microscope that uses electrons instead of light to form an image. Since their development in the early 1950's, scanning electron microscopes ...

This process — called reassortment — has resulted in pandemic strains of flu, including the 1918 influenza pandemic and 2009’s swine flu (SN: 5/22/09). Viruses can’t swap parts willy-nilly.

The attomicroscope is a modified transmission electron microscope, which uses a beam of electrons to image things as small as a few nanometers across (SN: 7/16/08). Like light, electrons can be ...

Scientist June Almeida operates an electron microscope in 1963 at the Ontario ... His team had collected samples of a flu-like virus they labeled “B814” from a sick schoolboy in Surrey ...
