Glycogen

These images compare the appearance of glycogen in hepatocytes by light microscopy (left, PAS stain) and electron microscopy (right). Individual glycogen granules, which measure 15 to 40 nm in diameter, are too small to be resolved by light microscopy. However, aggregates of these granules, which measure up to 300 nm in diameter, can be visualized. By electron microscopy, aggregates and their individual granules are clearly evident. 1000x (l); 7500x (r)
