A preparation of bacterial outer membrane with osmium tetroxide and uranyl acetate co-stain enables improved structural determination by transmission electron microscopy. [PDF]
Microscopy (Oxf), 2023 Biological nanoparticles, such as bacterial outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) are routinely characterized through transmission electron microscopy (TEM). In this study, we report a novel method to prepare OMVs for TEM imaging.

Isolation of disaturated phosphatidylcholine with osmium tetroxide
Journal of Lipid Research, 1976 A simple, rapid, inexpensive method for isolating disaturated phosphatidylcholine from adult rat lung has been devised. Total lipids are reacted with osmium tetroxide dissolved in carbon tetrachloride, and the disaturated phosphatidylcholine is isolated ...

Toxic Manifestations of Osmium Tetroxide [PDF]
Occupational and Environmental Medicine, 1946 Osmium is one of the precious metals and was discovered in 1803 by Tenant. It occurs naturally in close association with iridium. Osmiridium is an exceptionally hard alloy with a high melting point (2700? C.) and for this reason it is used extensively for tipping fountain-pen nibs.

THE FINE STRUCTURE OF CHLOROPLAST STROMA FOLLOWING ALDEHYDE OSMIUM-TETROXIDE FIXATION [PDF]
Journal of Cell Biology, 1965 Markedly improved fixation of leaf tissues is obtained by means of a glutaraldehyde (or acrolein)-osmium tetroxide procedure, as compared with the results of potassium permanganate or osmium tetroxide fixation methods.

Actin filament destruction by osmium tetroxide [PDF]
The Journal of cell biology, 1978 We have studied the destruction of purified muscle actin filaments by osmium tetroxide (OsO4) to develop methods to preserve actin filaments during preparation for electron microscopy. Actin filaments are fragmented during exposure to OsO4. This causes the viscosity of solutions of actin filaments to decrease, ultimately to zero, and provides a ...

Aspects of turnover and biogenesis of synaptic vesicles at locust neuromuscular junctions as revealed by zinc iodide-osmium tetroxide (ZIO) reacting with intravesicular SH-groups. [PDF]
Journal of Cell Biology, 1978 Retractor unguis nerve muscle preparations from the locust were subjected to the zinc iodide-osmium tetroxide reaction (ZIO) after pre- fixation in glutaraldehyde.
