Hi
We do metal shadowing of RecA-coated DNA using an older Denton 502. I have been using tungsten wire (cat# 53110) purchased from Ladd Research. with the following specs:
Single Strand Tungsten V-Filament - Single strand of
0.020" diameter tungsten wire.
This is the link:

Hope this helps

Dear all
I am looking for the correct metal (wire) for shadowing experiments to determine the handedness of my samples (biopolymers). The grain size for needs to be fairly small. I will be using TMV as a standard for calibration.
Please share your experience with such experiments and the source to obtain/purchase the metal.
Best Wishes
