Please, I need to observe the MS2 phage in Transmission Electron Microscopy. The sample would be in a 1000 ppm NaCl solution before (1E7-8 PFU/mL approx) and after (0 PFU/mL?) an electrochemical treatment. I think that before fixing the sample I should ultracentrifuge it but I don't know or can't find the conditions. Also, I don't know if my samples will generate pellets, specifically the one treated electrochemically. With the treated one I hope I don't have viable phages and that something can be seen under the microscope.
I would be very grateful for your comments.
Kind regards.
