Meet the latest additions to our Cryo range!

We’ve been busy expanding our Cryo-EM portfolio to make your life easier in the lab! Read on for more information on the range:

Cryo Tweezers for FEI Vitrobot System

• For plunge-freezing cryo-TEM sample preparation
• Compatible with all generations of the Vitrobot system
• Allow for straightforward and repeatable processes

Hybrid Grid Box

• Sample storage box for both clipped and unclipped grids
• Individual wells for unclipped grids
• Two wells for autogrids, up to two grids each
• Unique serial number on each box
• 6 colours for sample traceability

Bulk Storage Grid Box

• Sample storage box for 12 autogrids
• Accommodates unclipped grids securely
• Unique serial number on each box
• 6 colours for sample traceability

Pin Lid

• Can be used with hybrid or bulk storage cryo grid boxes
• Optimised access to all sample pockets or slots
• Slight blue tint for differentiation and visibility

Quick Lid

• Protects already vitrified samples from ice particulate and other contamination
• Manufactured from stainless steel to stay in place on the grid box
• Shaped pin on top for easy transfer with tweezers

Autogrid Inspection Tool

• Cost effective method of performing a final autogrid inspection before loading into the cassette
• Prevents a poorly clipped grid coming undone in the autoloader
• Fits securely in the cassette loading station

Foam Dewar for FEI Vitrobot System

• Compatible with the FEI Vitrobot
• Allows safer grid transfer to grid boxes
• Designed for grid boxes to remain in contact with liquid nitrogen for longer

Ethane Condenser

• Works alongside the FEI/Thermo Fisher Styrofoam dewar set
• Designed to reduce wasted ethane gas
• Makes the process easier and more ergonomic

Igloo

• Designed to better control manual transfer when preparing samples with the Vitrobot
• Enclosed environment provides protection from ambient humidity
• Provides a more user-friendly experience

Clipping Station

• Provides easy and efficient clipping of Cryo-EM grids for autoloader-based microscopes
• High-quality foam dewar integrates storage puck access directly adjacent to the clipping station
• Increases ease of use and reduces the potential for contamination when transferring grid boxes from pucks in other stations

Clipping Tools and Rack

• Compact-design clipping tool
• Reduces risk of impact of frost from environmental moisture, even if subjected to LN₂ for long periods of time
• C-clips can be loaded and cooled simultaneously, allowing the grids to be clipped without risk of ice decontamination

C-Clip Bottoming Tool

• An easier and more efficient way to ‘bottom’ the C-clip
• Convenient plunger for release
• Barrel of the clipping tool is straight, reducing risk of ‘mis-bottoming’ the C-clip
