Abstract

Visualizing the microbial cell surface by microscopy has been and still is a challenge. Fluorescence light-optical methods locate structures with accuracy in the lower nanometer range, scanning force microscopes record corrugations with angstrom sensitivity, and electron microscopy provides near atomic resolution of protein complexes. But if the surface of intact cells is to be investigated we are limited by several restrictions. What can microscopy achieve and which method is promising?
