Procedure from a recent peer-reviewed implementation

Steps below were extracted from the most recent peer-reviewed implementation of this protocol in the corpus — Structure and composition of natural ferrihydrite nano-colloids in anoxic groundwater (2023), Water Research. Implementations in other papers (listed below) may differ.

1. Perform transmission electron microscopy
   Colloids from porewater solution (180 cm depth; 0.22 and 0.1 μm; sampled in May–July 2021) were deposited on a lacey carbon Cu grid (300 mesh) inside an anoxic chamber. Samples were transferred to the TEM under anoxic conditions using a Fischione vacuum transfer holder (Model 2560). The images were collected in both conventional bright field imaging mode using a CMOS Ceta camera and scanning mode with a high-angle annular dark-field (HAADF) detector
