A technique is described whereby fall-out particles from dust clouds, commonly called aerosols, may be prepared for observation with the electron microscope. Specimens were collected by means of various types of precipitators on membrane filters made from cellulose esters. During the process of dissolving this material in acetone, the particles adhering to the filter surface were transferred to formvar-coated specimen screens for observation in the electron microscope. Losses were negligible, residual filter background was eliminated, and particles were clearly visualized for measuring or qualitative differentiation. (auth)
