37. The overall length of the coated MTs observed by TEM, on the order of a few micrometers, was far shorter than that observed in fluorescence microscopy. This may be due to fracturing of the coated tubes while the solution they were cast from dried on the TEM sample grid.
38. Networks resulting from high iron content coating solutions were too thick to be imaged by TEM.
39. These films are likely comprised of the salts contained in the buffer solutions used to prepare the coated MTs and form as part of the sample drying process after deposition onto TEM grids.
