  1. Feb 18, 2021 · Astrocytic processes have a clear, electron lucent cytoplasm, while oligodendrocytic and microglial processes have a moderately dense cytoplasm, and neurons have a cytoplasm showing intermediate gray levels between astrocytes and the other two glial cells (Peters et al., 1990).

  2. Once dried, specimens are coated with a thin layer of gold or gold-palladium and placed in the microscope. Figure 7.3 Example of a SEM image. A cast of the blood vessels in a rat brain was made using resins purchased from VasQtec, gold sputtered and imaged inside a scanning electron microscope.
