The 910 Multi-Specimen Cryo Transfer Holder is designed for low temperature screening and preliminary assessment of frozen hydrated specimens in the TEM.

Key Features
Frost-free specimen transfer

Light weight cryo workstation provides low temperature specimen loading to protect the frozen hydrated grid
A stationary one piece cryo shield protects the frozen hydrated grids providing protection against damage caused by warming and frost formation during transfer from the workstation to the electron microscope
Multiple specimen capability

Specimen carrier holds up to 3 grids
Splitring™ specimen securing mechanism

Maintains excellent thermal contact between the specimen holder and the frozen hydrated specimen grid
Available in beryllium for low background applications
High throughput screening of frozen hydrated specimens

Minimizes the number of cold transfers into the TEM while determining the best freezing conditions for the specimen
Precise Temperature Control

Temperature of the holder tip is monitored by a calibrated silicon diode which provides a sensitive, linear temperature response
The conductor rod connecting the specimen holder tip to the liquid nitrogen dewar contains an electric heater to control the specimen temperature

Tilt ranges and compatibility of specimen holders vary according to the TEM manufacturer, model, pole piece gap, and the presence of in-gap accessories. Please contact your local Gatan representative for more information.
