Visualization of membrane vesicles released from A. baumannii AIIMS 7 by Transmission Electron and Atomic Force Microscopy. (a-b): Transmission Electron Micrographs of membrane vesicles purified from Acinetobacter baumannii AIIMS 7, after negative staining with Uranyl acetate. (Bar, 100 nm). (c): Single membrane vesicle showing clear outer vesicular membrane with electron-dense core, indicating presence of nucleic acid. (Bar, 20 nm). (d): Atomic Force Micrograph of membrane vesicle suspension (, range: 200 nm, range: 7.146 nm). Arrows indicate individual membrane vesicles.
