Transmission Electron Microscope Imaging Service—Glacios Cryo-Electron Microscope with Gatan K3 Camera

Transmission electron microscopy is an important tool for the observation and study of ultrastructure and is widely used in a variety of disciplines such as histology, cytology, virology, pathology, and materials science, for example, to observe the overall structure of cells, changes in cell membranes, organelles in cell walls, the distribution of materials into cells, autophagic vesicles produced by cells in response to external stimuli, and invasive structures invaded by external organisms. CD BioSciences' Glacios Cryo-Electron Microscope with Gatan K3 Camera-based transmission electron microscopy imaging service enables customers to see the microscopic world.

Name of the Instrument/Platform

Glacios Cryo-Electron Microscope with Gatan K3 Camera

Introduction

The Glacios microscope will be equipped with the Gatan K3 camera, the new imaging performance benchmark for direct detection cameras. This next generation camera is optimized for the most demanding low-dose applications in both life science and materials science research. The K3 camera is the complete and latest expression of Gatan's deep experience in the delivery of real-time, single electron counting direct detection cameras.

Feature Highlights

Gatan K3 camera Features:
1. Powerful inline signal processing will raise the DQE beyond that of the K2 camera
2. Optional inline, GPU-based motion correction avoids the need to save terabytes of raw frames
3. 24 megapixels (5,760 × 4,092) field of view - 1.6 times the size of the K2 camera
4. 1,500 full frames per second - 3.75 times the speed of the K2 camera

Summary

The Glacios Cryo Transmission Electron Microscope (Cryo-TEM) from Thermofischer delivers a complete and affordable Cryo-EM solution to a broad range of scientists. It features 200 kV XFEG optics, the industry-leading Autoloader (cryogenic sample manipulation robot), and the same innovative automation for ease of use as on the Krios G4 Cryo-TEM. The Glacios Cryo-TEM bundles all this into a small footprint that simplifies installation.

CD BioSciences' transmission electron microscopy imaging laboratory has the professional equipment and experienced scientists. We are guided by the needs of our customers and are committed to promoting the progress of their research in biology and materials. Please feel free to contact us for any collaboration or questions.
