Cryo-tomography to Volume EM: Explore with Hydra Bio Plasma-FIB
Manage episode 418056106 series 3391756
Volume electron microscopy or volume EM (vEM) was named one of Nature's Technologies to Watch in 2023. The new Thermo Scientific Hydra Bio PFIB integrates advanced cryo-TEM lamella preparation to volume EM workflows.
In this episode of Listen In, see how the new Thermo Scientific Hydra Bio Plasma-Focused Ion Beam (PFIB) extends cryo technology to volume EM and enables the acquisition of high-resolution 3D data through automated serial milling and imaging of frozen-hydrated specimens.
Cryo Auto Slice & View enables the acquisition of high-resolution 3D data through automated serial milling and imaging for striking new insights into a range of frozen-hydrated specimens prepared by high-pressure freezing or plunge freezing.
The choice of four different plasma ion species offers advantages for imaging cryo- and resin-embedded samples. The Hydra Bio also features the Spin Mill Bio Method, an exclusive technique for large-area planar milling that yields similar-sized imaging areas as microtome slicing. Plus, see how Hydra Bio PFIB combines field-proven and new techniques to enable cryo and room temperature applications.
