Micrographs of a
     Set #101295O

The cross-section of a mouse optic nerve (Case ID 101295O) imaged at low magnification using an electron microscope. The small squares to the right of the image are 1x1 millimeters.
Click on the highlighted spots in red to view a higher magnification. (The next magnifications are about 200 kilobytes and 475x607 pixels.)
This is a set of 21 micrographs taken from a 36-day-old male CCASF2. The sample area was 31.21 microns², with a high magnification of 12987x and low magnification of 191x. There are an estimated 55050 ± 4449 axons in this optic nerve in an area of 60131 microns².

The histogram and basic statistics of acquired data from the measurements of the axons, as well as the calibrations of the micrograph set are available.
