Description Comparison between imaging in FE-SEM and HIM imaging of organic matrix in secretory stage mouse enamel. The mineral phase of forming prisms has been removed by etching thus exposing the organic matrix. (A,B) FE-SEM images show the variable structure of the organic matrix, the spaces accommodating the forming prisms appear as a black hole, however, due to limited depth of field. Organic matrix forming the wall, as it were, of the prism spaces is smooth and similar to lace as indicated (marked as ##). Spherical structures of up to ~100 nm diameter are abundant between forming prisms (arrow heads) and rod like features of several hundred nanometer length and less than 100 nm diameter can be discerned (open arrows). (C,D): HIM images reveal with great depth of field the network-like organization of organics delimiting the prism space. The matrix between prisms appears smooth and no structural details can be clearly discerned.
