Cryo Workstation for Electron Microscopy
The EMS-002 Cryo Workstation is a complete ultrarapid freezing system for microscopy. The rapid immersion freezer attains plunging speeds of approximately 100m per/sec allowing more efficient heat exchange and hence fast freezing that captures rapid events and labile structures that are not seen in chemically fixed material.
The EMS-002 now supports simple to use Freeze Substitution module (3 in the figure to the right) that is placed in the plunge freezer dewar (2). The freeze substitution controller will control the liquid nitrogen levels automatically as well as the substitution process itself. The user just has to monitor the systems progress during substitution and perform scheduled substitution media changes. For details, click here.
