Abstract：
:A new method was established for fine visualization of bacterial subcelluar filamentous structures by freezing the bacterial cells to displace cytoplasmic matrix granules to the periphery. This method was successfully applied in immunoelectron microscopy and electron microscopic tomography, and should be applicable for further studies of bacterial architecture and nanotransportation.
