TEM / SEM Sample Prep Products & Reviews

The drying of biological specimens such as pollen, tissue, plants, insects, as well as industrial samples, for example MEMS (Micro Electro Mechanical Systems) for SEM analysis can be prepared in the Leica EM CPD300 Critical Point Dryer, fully automatically.

For one of the most common glow discharge applications, making TEM support films or grids hydrophilic using air, the PELCO easiGlow™ uses an automated and quick cycle with fully selectable parameters. The microprocessor controlled system also offers full manual control for all parameters and an advanced protocol programming feature for custom designed glow discharge applications. Parameters and protocols can be stored to facil…

The Ultramicrotome Leica EM UC7 provides easy preparation of semi- and ultrathin sections as well as perfect, smooth surfaces of biological and industrial samples for TEM, SEM, AFM, LM examination. Expand the EM UC7 with the EM FC7 cryochamber to a state-of-the-art cryo sectioning system in just a few mins. For serial sectioning, use the ARTOS 3D ultramicrotome to get consistent, ultrathin serial sections for array tomography…

High-pressure freezing with the possibility of light and electrical stimulation

For optimal imaging and microanalysis in electron microscopy, it is imperative to have a clean, well-prepared specimen. This is especially true for many modern electron microscopes, which employ high brightness electron sources, such as LaB6 filaments and field emission(FE) guns. Such high brightness systems combine a small electron probe for microanalysis with increased beam current density, giving high resolution specimen im…

Sample surfaces are inevitably coated with hydrocarbon contamination due to sample preparation or from storage. The ZONE desktop sample cleaner/desiccator gently removes contaminations to reveal the true surface of your specimens. There are Two Models ZoneSEM ZoneSEM's sample holder stage was designed for Hitachi Type I and Type II carriers. Adjustable height and optional holders available. Provides effective cleaning of surfa…
