alexander.baumann@tccd.edu	viknesh alexander.baumann@tccd.edu Hello, After we prepare our grids, is there a suggested time in which to image them, and a maximum time we can store them before they're, on average, too degraded for TEM to visualize the bacteriophages? The grids should be stable for weeks to months, if not years. Once stained, you'll want to avoid exposure to moiture and direct light. You could put the grids (in their holder) in a small box with a dessicant. Thank you!
