Cryoplunge 3 System
Cryoplunge™ 3 system with GentleBlot™ technology is used for the preparation of frozen hydrated specimens for cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM).
- GentleBlot technology optimizes blotting force and pressure to provide gentle 1- and 2-sided blotting to minimize breakage of fragile specimen supports
- Humidified plunging chamber safeguards the specimen from drying during the blotting process
- Temperature controlled pot maintains the condensed ethane at its melting point
- Specially designed quick disconnect mechanism on plunge rod allows fast and easy attachment of the plunge tweezers to facilitate specimen handling
- Removable liquid nitrogen workstation provides a contamination free environment to protect the frozen hydrated specimen
