    In this chapter we compile a battery of biophysical and imaging methods suitable to investigate adenovirus structural stability, structure, and assembly. Some are standard methods with a long history of use in virology, such as embedding and sectioning of infected cells, negative staining, or immunoelectron microscopy, as well as extrinsic fluorescence. The newer cryo-electron microscopy technique, which combined with advanced image processing tools has recently yielded an atomic resolution picture of the complete virion, is also described. Finally, we detail the procedure for imaging and interacting with single adenovirus virions using the atomic force microscope in liquid conditions. We provide examples of the kind of data obtained with each technique.
