Milnesium Cassandrae
''Milnesium'' is a genus of tardigrades. It is rather common, being found in a wide variety of habitats across the world. It has a fossil record extending back to the Cretaceous, the oldest species found so far (''M. swolenskyi'') is known from Turonian stage deposits on the east coast of the United States. Milnesiums are one of the most desiccation and radiation-resistant invertebrates on Earth because of their unique ability to transform into a "tun" state and utilize intrinsically disordered proteins when experiencing extreme environments. Species Described species include: * '' Milnesium alabamae'' Wallendorf & Miller, 2009 *'' Milnesium almatyense'' Tumanov, 2006 * '' Milnesium alpigenum'' Ehrenberg, 1853 *'' Milnesium antarcticum'' Tumanov, 2006 * '' Milnesium argentinum'' Roszkowska, Ostrowska & Kaczmarek, 2015 *'' Milnesium asiaticum'' Tumanov, 2006 * '' Milnesium barbadosense'' Meyer & Hinton, 2012 * '' Milnesium beasleyi'' Kaczmarek, Jakubowska & Michalczyk, 2012 * ''Mi ...

Scanning Electron Microscopy
A scanning electron microscope (SEM) is a type of electron microscope that produces images of a sample by scanning the surface with a focused beam of electrons. The electrons interact with atoms in the sample, producing various signals that contain information about the surface topography and composition. The electron beam is scanned in a raster scan pattern, and the position of the beam is combined with the Intensity (physics), intensity of the detected signal to produce an image. In the most common SEM mode, secondary electrons emitted by atoms excited by the electron beam are detected using a secondary electron detector (Everhart–Thornley detector). The number of secondary electrons that can be detected, and thus the signal intensity, depends, among other things, on specimen topography. Some SEMs can achieve resolutions better than 1 Nanometre, nanometer. Specimens are observed in high vacuum in a Convention (norm), conventional SEM, or in low vacuum or wet conditions in ...
