914 High Tilt Liquid Nitrogen Cryo Transfer Tomography Holder

The 914 High Tilt Liquid Nitrogen Cryo Transfer Tomography Holder is designed for low temperature transfer and subsequent tomographic recording of electron beam sensitive, frozen hydrated specimens in the TEM.

Key Features

Frost-free specimen transfer

• Light weight cryo workstation provides low temperature specimen loading to protect the frozen hydrated grid
• One piece cryo shield encapsulates the frozen hydrated grid providing protection against damage caused by warming and frost formation during transfer from the workstation to the electron microscope

High resolution performance

• Stable specimen temperature minimizes thermal drift to ensure high resolution performance

Quickload™ specimen securing mechanism

• Grids or specimens are held firmly but gently by clamping springs, which are flexible enough to take up variations in specimen thickness
• Maintains excellent thermal contact between the specimen holder and the frozen hydrated specimen grid
• Specimen is automatically centered upon insertion into the Quickload™ mechanism

Tilt ranges and compatibility of specimen holders vary according to the TEM manufacturer, model, pole piece gap, and the presence of in-gap accessories.Please contact your local Gatan representative for more information.
