[Life] Cooling BIB (Broad Ion Beam) cross sectioning of a Lotus corniculatus pulvinus

A cross section of a Lotus corniculatus pulvinus was prepared by cooling BIB (Broad Ion Beam) milling to minimize ion beam induced thermal damage. The pulvinus motile cells seen as empty walls in the upper half of the low magnification image were sectioned without crushing. Chloroplasts with thylakoid membrane border and starch were observed in the high magnification image.
