Anyone using ESI or EFTEM? You use a post-column spectrometer to generate images of chromatin elemental Phos. and Nitrogen content, with 5 nm resolution. I ask, as I still think as a technique for visualizing chromatin it is GOATED, see Rapkin 2012 Micron www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

It is all starting to make sense. Post COVID I nearly stopped travelling - I just send me trainees to conferences. Good thing my Shepherds are good listeners, even if they get bored hearing about splicing kinases and nuclear subdomains.
