Abstract
Some applications of Analytical Electron Microscopies (AEM) for the ch aracterization of colloids in natural waters are presented. These tech niques go much beyond the basic level of morphological observation and render possible to gain detailed physico-chemical information difficu lt to obtain by conventional analytical methods. Hence, AEM appear as a challenging necessity for understanding the colloid-mediated transpo rt of toxics in the environment.
