Vitrobot 1 Plunge Freezer

Vitrobot offers fully automated vitrification. It performs the cryo-fixation process at constant physical and mechanical conditions like temperature, relative humidity, blotting conditions and freezing velocity. This ensures high quality cryo-fixation results and a high sample preparation throughput prior to cryo-TEM observation. The Vitrobot's controlled environmental technology prevents cooling and concentration of artifacts that are inevitable in other freezing protocols. The transfer from the vitrification medium into the liquid nitrogen atmosphere has been automated, ensuring consistent sample quality at high sample throughput.

Zeiss Merlin SEM

Field emission scanning electron microscope capable of producing images of a sample by scanning with a focused beam of electrons. The electrons interact with atoms in the sample, producing various signals that contain information about the sample's surface topography and composition. It is an SEM capable of imaging magnetic nano particles with no image distortion for non-conductives samples such as minerals, ceramics, glass and polymers.
Sample - various types of solid sample.

Nova Nano SEM 630

Nova Nano SEM 630 is a scanning electron microscope that produces images of a sample by scanning it with a focused beam of electrons. The electrons interact with atoms in the sample, producing various signals that contain information about the sample's surface topography and composition. This is field-emission SEM capable of ultra-high resolution characterization at high and low voltage in low and/or high vacuum environment. It is equipped with advanced optics that include a 2-mode final lens (immersion and field-free), SE/BSE in-lens detection, solid state backscatter detectors and beam deceleration technologies. Analytical capabilities are provided by EDS and EBSD from the EDAX. The instrument is also complemented by Quorum's cryo stage and preparation chamber that allows characterization of wet biological and non-biological samples in low temperature.
