This volume is a kind of celebration of the progress of freeze-fracture electron microscopy in recent years. Many of the authors are leaders of the advancing front. Instead of offering an instruction manual of how to perform new techniques or a review to recover what has happened in the past in respect fields, both which are abundantly available as journal articles and monographs, this volume is a collection of personal testimonies as examples of the power of the new freeze-fracture technology. Since each chapter also centres around specific biological problem, it also serves to illustrate how much the understanding of the problem has been advanced by the new freeze-fracture methodology, which is most cases is developed by the author(s) themselves. A characteristic of frontier development is that many chapters are dealing with controversial subjects. The Inclusion of these subjects in the volume represents the dynamic nature of the subject as viewed by the authors rather than the final verdicts of the subject matter.

The freeze fracture technique coupled with transmission electron microscopy has contributed significant scientific information toward the experimental investigation of both normal and abnormal cells in the fields of cellular, developmental and molecular biology, and to several subdisciplines in medicine, including pathology, anatomy, and physiology. This book presents a complete and up-to-date account of the macromolecular organization of membranes and the many membrane specialization of cells as well as overall cellular organization as reflected in tissues and organs. While the book emphasizes freeze fracture images and the useful scientific information contained in them, the authors have also included transmission electron micrographs of ultrathin sectioned cells, tissues, and organs in order to aid in the interpretation of the freeze fracture image and increase the book's utility. Where three dimensional views are particularly useful, scanning electron micrographs are included.

The techniques of freeze fracture and deep etching—techniques for the examination of the ultrastructure of rapidly frozen biological specimens by transmission electron microscopy—have profoundly influenced our understanding of the functional organization of the cell. Rapid Freezing, Freeze Fracture, and Deep Etching guides the reader through the principles of these techniques and gives detailed examples of their application in biomedical research. The book is organized into three sections. The first covers the fundamentals of freeze fracture and deep etching, with a discussion of basic principles for those new to the field, and an entire chapter on the equipment currently available for freeze fracture. Advanced techniques are presented next, with each chapter devoted to an in-depth treatment of a specific topic, including the advantages and limitations of each technique. The final chapters offer a series of applications selected to illustrate the wide-ranging and enduring impact of rapid freezing, freeze fracture, and deep etching on the field of biomedical research. With over 150 illustrations and containing contributions by leading experts instrumental in the development of these techniques, Rapid Freezing, Freeze Fracture, and Deep Etching offers authoritative coverage of such novel topics as: Hyperbaric freezing Ultrarapid freezing techniques in the study of dynamic cellular processes Cytochemical methods utilizing lectins and antibodies for labeling specific cellcomponents Fracturing and shadowing under ultra-low temperature and ultra-high vacuum conditions Freeze fracture and deep etching in neurobiology Rapid Freezing, Freeze Fracture, and Deep Etching will appeal to both newcomers to the field and experienced researchers and will be essential reading for cell biologists and anatomists, as well as any researcher who uses electron microscopy.

The development of the electron microscope brought one to the other. The purpose of this book is to in a new era, in which cell structures could be provide a bridge, to help those who are familiar visualized down to a macromolecular level. It is of with conventional electron microscopy, to cross course well recognized that some cell components into the less familiar freeze-etching. This has been can be modified or even completely lost during the done by providing paired photographs wherever complex sequence of fixation, dehydration, staining possible, one showing the thin section of a tissue or and plastic embedding which is essential before a a cell, the other a freeze-etch replica of a similar thin section can be obtained. Further, only these cell material. At the same time we have tried to provide components which can be made electron opaque a basis for interpretation of freeze-etched structures, can be visualized. For these reasons, the morpho and we hope the reader will find the first 23 Plates logist and cell biologist alike have to explore alter especially useful in this respect. Because there are native techniques of specimen preparation which many excellent atlases of cell structure available at may avoid some of the artefacts inherent in con the present time, we felt there was no need to ventional thin-section electron microscopy, and at provide lengthy discussions of each plate.

Electron microscopy is frequently portrayed as a discipline that stands alone, separated from molecular biology, light microscopy, physiology, and biochemistry, among other disciplines. It is also presented as a technically demanding discipline operating largely in the sphere of "black boxes" and governed by many absolute laws of procedure. At the introductory level, this portrayal does the discipline and the student a disservice. The instrumentation we use is complex, but ultimately understandable and, more importantly, repairable. The procedures we employ for preparing tissues and cells are not totally understood, but enough information is available to allow investigators to make reasonable choices concerning the best techniques to apply to their parti cular problems. There are countless specialized techniques in the field of electron and light microscopy that require the acquisition of specialized knowledge, particularly for interpretation of results (electron tomography and energy dispersive spectroscopy immediately come to mind), but most laboratories possessing the equipment to effect these approaches have specialists to help the casual user. The advent of computer operated electron microscopes has also broadened access to these instruments, allowing users with little technical knowledge about electron microscope design to quickly become operators. This has been a welcome advance, because earlier instru ments required a level of knowledge about electron optics and vacuum systems to produce optimal photographs and to avoid "crashing" the instruments that typically made it difficult for beginners.

The past decade has seen a remarkable increase in the use of electron microscopy as a researm tool in biology and medicine. Thus, most institu tions of higher learning now boast several electron optical laboratories having various levels of sophistication. Training in the routine use of elec tron optical equipment and interpretation of results is no longer restricted to a few prestigious centers. On the other hand, temniques utilized by researm workers in the ultrastructural domain have become extremely diverse and complex. Although a large number of quite excellent volumes of electron microscopic temnique are now dedicated to the basic elements available whim allow the novice to acquire a reasonable introduction to the field, relatively few books have been devoted to a discussion of more ad vanced temnical aspects of the art. It was with this view that the present volume was conceived as a handy reference for workers already having some background in the field, as an information source for those wishing to shift efforts into more promising temniques, or for use as an advanced course or seminar guide. Subject matter has been mosen particularly on the basis of pertinence to present researm activities in biological electron microscopy and emphasis has been given those areas whim seem destined to greatly expand in useful ness in the near future.
