A common requirement for both Atom Probe Field-Ion Microscopy (APFIM) and Scanning Tunnelling Microscopy (STM) is a sharp pointed tip for use as either the specimen (APFIM) or the probe (STM). Traditionally, tips have been prepared by either chemical or electropolishing techniques. Recently, ion-milling has been successfully employed in the production of APFIM tips [1]. Conventional electropolishing techniques are applicable to a wide variety of metals, but generally require careful manual adjustments during the polishing process and may also be time-consuming. In order to reduce the time and effort involved in the preparation process, a compact, self-contained polishing unit has been developed. This system is based upon the conventional two-stage electropolishing technique in which the specimen/tip blank is first locally thinned or “necked”, and subsequently electropolished until separation occurs.[2,3] The result of this process is the production of two APFIM or STM tips. A mechanized polishing unit that provides these functions while automatically maintaining alignment has been designed and developed.

Elastic tissue is an important component of the walls of arteries and veins, of skin, of the lungs and in lesser amounts, of many other tissues. It is responsible for the rubber-like properties of the arteries and for the normal texture of young skin. It undergoes changes in a number of important diseases such as atherosclerosis and emphysema and on exposure of skin to sunlight.We have recently described methods for the localizationof elastic tissue components in normal animal and human tissues. In the study of developing and diseased tissues it is often not possible to obtain samples which have been optimally prepared for immuno-electron microscopy. Sometimes there is also a need to examine retrospectively samples collected some years previously. We have therefore developed modifications to our published methods to allow examination of human and animal tissue samples obtained at surgery or during post mortem which have subsequently been: 1. stored frozen at -35° or -70°C for biochemical examination; 2.

Remittances Review is a new journal that offers a quality outlet for exchanges between academics, researchers, and policy makers. There are more journals dealing with migration than ever before, and most have similar mandates to publish research for researchers. There has been a proliferation of journals in migration studies in the last five to ten years. However, most have grown with similar mandates that replicate breadth and interests. Remittances Review is the first international academic peer reviewed journal dedicated to money transfers, migrant remittances and the challenges and issues related to these flows across borders. Remittances Review invites contributions that include new data, rigorous research, and thoughtful analysis. We expect quality contributions that advance theory and methods as well as drawing implications for policy and practice. Readers will benefit from cutting edge research conceptual innovations, and reviews and reports.
