Observation of the external morphology of Dermatophagoides farinae at different developmental stages by scanning electron microscope technology (CAT#: STEM-MIT-0052-LJX)

Introduction

The Dermatophagoides farinae egg appeared a long oval shape, and the larval mites had three pairs of legs. The nymph had four pairs of legs and underdeveloped genital pores containing genital setae and anal setae, and adult mites appeared long and oval in shape, with decorative patterns on epidermis, and had four pairs of legs. In male adult mites, remarkable thickening of the leg I and thicker and longer leg III than the leg IV were seen, and ventral genital regions were found between the basal segments of legs III and IV; the anus was surrounded by a circular peri-anal ring, with a pair of anal suckers and anal setae within the ring. In the female adult mites, slender legs III and IV with an equal length were seen, and a "λ-shape" genital hole was observed on the ventral surface, with a crescent-like genital plate in the anterior part, and the anus appeared a longitudinal slit.

Principle

Scanning electron microscope (SEM) is another tool to study the surface morphology, which is different from transmission electron microscope and optical microscope. SEM uses extremely narrow electron beams to scan the sample and uses point-by-point imaging to obtain an enlarged image. SEM generates secondary electron emission through the interaction between the electron beam and the sample, and the secondary electron can produce the morphologic image of the sample surface enlargement. SEM can directly utilize the material properties of the sample surface for microscopic imaging.
SEM provides the possibility to study the relationship between the three-dimensional structure of cell or tissue surface and antigen composition. The markers used in scanning electron microscopy should be able to be in the range of scanning electron microscopy, and have good localization ability to cell or tissue antigen. The selection of markers should be based on the purpose of the study. If the volume of the marker cells is large, large markers should be used, while small, easily identifiable markers should be selected to locate the receptor.
