Visualization of bone marrow-derived macrophages infected with L. amazonensis using field-emission scanning electron microscopy. In (a), intact cell (light grey) and, in (b), L. amazonensis amastigotes (red) within spacious PVs were exposed through fracture by Scotch tape, followed by gold sputtering. The samples were processed as described in the legend of Figure 5. Scale bar, 10 μm.
