What is it about?
If we want to image cells with a scanning electron microscope, we have to dry them. Drying can cause artifacts, especially if the cells are grown on a polymer substrate. Here we compared two sample preparation procedures and found that one of them was better than the other.

Why is it important?
Imaging cells grown on polymer substrates is crucial in tissue engineering because it helps us to understand the cell-substrate interactions.
Perspectives
We hope that our experience in imaging cells grown on electrospun substrates will be useful for the other researchers who work in a similar area.
