Cryoelectron Microscopy Equipment

这是两个设备项目的建议，一个低温台， 和一个冷冻转移系统， 电子显微镜系统 冷冻电子显微镜是一种 用于观察无伪影生物材料的技术。 的 一种技术是通过在低温水中冷冻来保存标本。 温度，然后观察样品与电子 显微镜下-140 ° C。 这些设备将由 研究人员观察脂质体悬浮液，病毒和细胞 细胞器和膜囊泡。 此外，薄冻 将使用化学未固定的标本切片检查 使用其他技术进行观察的准确性。

This is a proposal for two items of equipment, a cryostage and a cryotransfer system to fully equip a low temperature electron microscope system. Cryoelectron microscopy is a technique for viewing artefact-free biological material. The technique is to preserve the specimen by freezing in water at low temperatures and then viewing the specimen with the electron microscope at -140o C. The equipment will be used by the investigators to view liposome suspensions, viruses, and cell organelle and membrane vesicles. In additions, thin frozen sections of chemically unfixed specimens will be used to check the fidelity of observations made using other techniques.
