Abstract

We report the first direct images of the hydration of protein powders. Using an environmental scanning electron microscope (ESEM) we have taken a series of micrographs of a region of the enzyme (subtilisin) power whilst hydrating the sample. In addition, the sample has been viewed during exposure to toluene vapors. The ESEM is a remarkable new instrument that will have wide applicability in imaging of biological materials in their native environments. Copyright © 1992 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
